Excerpt of the article:
"Pancakes and toast may not be your best breakfast options if you're trying to lose weight. New research presented this week at The Obesity Society's annual scientific meeting in Atlanta shows that high protein sausage- and egg-based breakfasts curb hunger better than high-carb morning meals or skipping breakfast entirely.
The study, which tested the impact of various types of breakfast in
18- to 55-year-old women, suggest the traditional American diet (which
typically includes more protein at dinner and less at breakfast) may be a
contributing factor to the nation's obesity crisis.
"Eating a breakfast rich in protein significantly improves appetite
control and may help women to avoid overeating later in the day," said
lead researcher Kevin C. Maki, a scientist with Biofortis Clinical
Research, a Mérieux NutriSciences company."
