For years, I genuinely believed skipping breakfast was one of the healthiest things I could do.
I’d wake up.
Drink some water.
Exercise.
And feel proud of myself for delaying food.
What I didn’t understand was that the goals I had in my 40s were very different to the goals I had in my 20s.
I wanted:
More energy.
More strength.
Better recovery.
Healthy ageing.
And breakfast may play a much bigger role in those goals than I realised.
