Varierande effekt av frukost på kognition; olika resultat i olika populationer.

Breakfast and cognition: Sixteen effects in nine populations, no single recipe.

There is a consensus regarding the universal significance of breakfast (BF) for health, wellbeing and cognition. The success of free school breakfast programs (e.g. Hasz & Lamport, 2012), which reportedly improve academic performance, fortifies this belief.

However, studies showing cognitive effects of BF versus skipping BF in large mixed cohorts of children (e.g. Wesnes et al., 2012) are often lacking metabolic and nutritional specifics. This creates uncertainty regarding the metabolic consequences of BF. Another uncertainty exists regarding skipping BF, which has been argued to have universally negative cognitive consequences - a claim that was recently announced a “presumption” unsupported by scientific evidence (Casazza, 2013, p.1).

Surprisingly, in discussions regarding skipping BF, the neuroprotective and cognitively beneficial effects of intermittent fasting (featuring skipping BF every other day), although well-documented, are never mentioned.

Som med det mesta så är det nog väldigt individuellt.
