A member asked:

Why is it bad to wait for more than an hour after waking to eat breakfast?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Eating breakfast: It is not necessarily "bad" to wait over an hour to eat breakfast, but the body has been without food or liquids since your evening meal. Breakfast is considered a very important meal and should not be skipped.
