Do not skip meals. It is more dangerous for health than we thought

Skipping one of the three standard meals a day can have serious consequences, new research suggests.

The study involved 24 American adults aged 011 and over. It found that just one meal per day was associated with a higher risk of death overall. Skipping breakfast was associated with a higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease, and skipping lunch or dinner was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality.

Problems were also observed in those who ate all three meals, but they were not sufficiently spaced in time. It has also been shown that eating two meals 4,5 hours apart is associated with an increased risk of death from all causes.
