“Rise and shine!” Millions of
ex-servicemen still shudder when
they recall that early morning
greeting from a first sergeant
or chief.
Nevertheless, they were better
off in some ways than they are
today. Everything was orderly
and routine. Everyone had time
for a good solid breakfast.
How do ex-Corporal Doe and
his family start their day now ?
The above scene from a typi
cal American home pretty well
describes it. Doe is still shaving
and has just fifteen minutes to
get out of the house and start
for work. The oldest boy has to
leave for school at the same
time. The little kids are driving
Mrs. Doe to distraction. In
short, all is confusion.
Only the cat seems relaxed
and enjoying his breakfast. In
fact, the cat is the only one who
will get much of a breakfast.
And that’s the trouble. There’s
no doubt, according to leading
nutritionists who have made
studies and surveys on the sub
ject, that breakfast is the most
neglected meal of the day among
all age groups.
Since breakfast should supply
at least one-third of the daily
caloric requirements, they’ve
ix-j
noted that non-breakfast eating
people were less alert, less effi
cient and more susceptible to
fatigue than those who had eat
en a good morning meal.
Making up for the lack of
breakfast later in the day doesn’t
work either, nutritionists say;
Because the human body is so
constructed that it requires fair
ly even intake of food at regu
lar intervals for maximum health
and efficiency.
It is particularly important
for people who are overweight
or those who have trouble keep
ing down to a healthy weight to
eat a good breakfast. The reason
for this is that people will almost
always eat too hearty a lunch
and dinner and will snack in
between if they skip breakfast.
A recommended basic break
fast consists of fruit or fruit
juices, cereal, milk, toast and
butter or fortified margarine.
Eggs and bacon or sausages
should be included at least a few
times a week. These are the
foods that are essential to adults
and children to supply the neces
sary nutrients to equip them for
better stamina, maximum effi
ciency and greater acuity during
work and school.
