The scientist , also a doctor , who trained as a clinical biochemist and was a former research fellow at The Welcome Trust .

The guy's name is Terence Kealey  .

The book is called "Breakfast is a dangerous meal "

It's been featured in numerous newspapers over the last few months ....

Excuse the copy and paste but this post from 'leamspaceman' explains things better than I could ever dream ...

So you'd describe yourself as being in a bad way ??

No energy , lethargic , moody , pesimistic , always craving sweet things or high carb foods like bread and so on , seeming hungry all through the day ?!

Zincubus

Fair enough , I thank you for moving the post and staring this thread then . I've just copied and pasted best explanation I can find in the last  post .

He doesn't seem too bothered about breakfast:

Professor Kealey and Freer agree that skipping breakfast isn’t right for everybody. Children need it, and those people who happily eat breakfast and are at a healthy weight should just carry on.

if you love breakfast, you’re happy with your health and fitness, and it works for you, then carry on.

The article concludes

So, is breakfast a dangerous meal? Probably not

So that's sorted then

Is breakfast actually  bad for you?

Zincubus

Just the millions and millions of overweight ones then


Incidentally , I only mentioned him as I read  about his work .


He's nothing to to do with the fasting fraternity ...

Zincubus

Is that a good thing or a bad

Anyways as I just mentioned , he's nothing to do with the fasting movement

He's jaunt published and promoting a book on the dangers eating breakfast .

Is this the sound of backpedaling, after taking the time to list out his qualifications?

IronGiant

Oh come on you all but quoted him as the scientist that practically cured Type 2 Diabetes

Zincubus

I only dropped him in there as he was a SCIENTIST who'd made public his views on eating breakfast ,
