Original title: No breakfast, low test scores
A new study from the University of Leeds in the UK suggests that school-age children and teenagers who stick to breakfast every day can help improve academic performance.
To find out if there was a link between breakfast and test scores, the team followed 294 students, 29 percent of whom ate little or no breakfast during school, 18 percent had occasional breakfast and 53 percent regularly ate breakfast. Taking into account important factors such as the student's family financial situation, race, age, gender and body mass index, the researchers concluded that those who barely ate breakfast had an average score of 10.25 points lower than those who ate breakfast regularly, a difference of nearly two grades. The findings are published in the journal Frontiers in Public Health.
, a researcher at the University of Leeds, says that according to statistics, 500,000 school-age children in the UK are too hungry to study every day. The study confirms that students will be disadvantaged throughout the day if they can't get a healthy breakfast before class to re-energies their brains. In other words, children's attention, learning preparation, behavior, and punctuality in class are all improved by eating breakfast. The researchers call for education to be critical to getting out of poverty and the future success of children, and ensuring that every child has access to a healthy breakfast should be a priority.
