There is a famous saying in the West: Eat breakfast like a king. It means breakfast should be the most important meal of your day. Why?
The answer is in the word breakfast itself. Breakfast means “breaking of the fast(禁食期)”. There are about twelve hours between dinner and breakfast, so it's important to eat breakfast to keep in good health. Also, the food for breakfast will give you what you need in the day.
Eating a good breakfast is important, but not many people are changing their eating habits. In the USA, about 60% of people have their main meal in the evening. For most Japanese and Australians, the evening meal is the main meal of the day, too.
In Mexico, the main meal for many families is usually at 2:00 pm. In Switzerland, the main meal is also in the middle of the day.
Many nutritionist(营养师) say people should eat small, low–fat meals five or six times a day. However, most people think that what you eat is more important than when you eat it. Eating healthy foods like vegetables, fish, and fresh fruit is a good way to enjoy a healthy life.
