Kindly confirm if it is true that skipping breakfast is not good for the health.

Recent research has confirmed that a good breakfast could help keep the cardiovascular system healthy. For a healthy heart, the best breakfast is one that provides 20% to 30% of the energy you will need for the day. Eating either less or more may increase certain cardiometabolic risk factors in older adults. Food quality also counts, with lower quality causing a potential increase in several measurements of cardiometabolic risk. A recent study, published in the Journal of Nutrition, Health and Aging, demonstrates that a good breakfast may reduce risk factors for cardiovascular disease in older adults. The study is unique in that it investigates both the caloric content of one’s breakfast and the quality of the foods consumed and their effect on heart health.
Eliminating a meal’s worth of calories each day might intuitively seem like it would lead to a healthier body. However, this study suggests that not consuming enough of the energy you will need to get through the day may result in a higher risk of cardiovascular issues. Consuming too little for breakfast may increase the risk of adiposity and BMI by leading to overeating later in the day.
