Skipping breakfast can negatively affect your mood and sleep quality
If you typically skip breakfast and notice your mood or sleep isn’t as great as you’d like, there may be a correlation. A study with more than 700 college students as participants found that not eating breakfast was associated with effects on sleep chronotypes and increased depressive symptoms, which negatively impacted sleep quality. Researchers note that the effects of not eating breakfast on sleep quality weren’t significant, but there was a noticeable difference when compared to cases where people ate breakfast regularly.
