It’s very expensive to eat 3 times a day. Wake up later, miss breakfast, and save money.
It is commonly believed that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, as it provides the energy and nutrients needed to start the day on the right foot after a night of fasting. Eating a nutritious breakfast can help improve focus, concentration, and overall performance throughout the morning, and may also help regulate hunger and prevent overeating later in the day. However, the importance of any meal can vary depending on an individual’s specific nutritional needs, lifestyle, and dietary preferences.
So could we save time and money further to get down to just one meal a day?
It would be challenging to meet all of your nutritional needs with just one meal a day. Ideally, you should aim to have a balanced diet that includes a variety of foods from different food groups to ensure that you are getting the nutrients your body needs.
If you are limited to only one meal a day, a nutritious and balanced option would be a meal that includes:
- A source of lean protein, such as chicken, fish, tofu, or legumes
- Complex carbohydrates, such as brown rice, whole grain bread, or sweet potatoes
- A variety of colorful vegetables, such as leafy greens, carrots, bell peppers, and tomatoes
- Healthy fats, such as avocado, nuts, seeds, or olive oil
- A serving of fruit for added vitamins, minerals, and fiber
- Additionally, consider including a source of calcium, such as dairy or calcium-fortified plant-based milk, and iron-rich foods, such as spinach or red meat, to help meet your daily requirements for these important nutrients.
