If a person skips breakfast and overeats at lunch, what risk can increase?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Difficulty controlling food intake
Skipping breakfast may lead to intense hunger by lunchtime, making portion control more difficult and encouraging rapid or excessive eating. If this pattern is repeated, it can contribute to excess daily energy intake and weight gain, although individual responses vary. Regular, balanced meals with fibre and protein can support better appetite control. Skipping a meal does not automatically increase fibre or improve sleep.
