People need energy to do activities. The energy can be obtained from carbohydrate, fat, and protein that contained in food. Breakfast is one of the important actions so the body gets enough energy intake to do activities. However, according to Riset Kesehatan Dasar year 2010, 59% of Indonesia people skipped breakfast even though it had an impact for health. I am going to present 3 reasons why we should eat breakfast. First, I'll tell you about the effects of breakfast on the brain, then I'll tell you about the effects on the body, and finally, I'll tell you that breakfast helps you improve your memory. Finally, I will summarize my speech.
First, I'd like to talk about the effect of breakfast for the brain. Glucose has an important role as a source energy for our brain. Where can we get glucose? We can get it from breakfast. If we have enough glucose, we can concentrate more on working, so it can increase your productivity. Also, glucose can improve memory. Based on research by Benton&Parker in 1998, glucose level has significant correlation with memory function. High and low glucose level has an effect for the memory. Therefore, you should have breakfast for good concentrate and good memory.
The next reason is its effect to body. Breakfast will give us some important nutrients for our body such as protein, fat, vitamin, and mineral. These nutrients are really useful for physiological process in our body. Now we can see that prevalence of malnutrition in our country reached 17.7%. It becomes one of the health problems in Indonesia. Our government efforts to overcome this problem is inform the public to increase daily milk consumption because it has protein, fat, and vitamin to support growth. Increasing daily milk consumption can fulfill nutritional needs but only a little. Furthermore, we should at least have breakfast to help complete it.
The last reason is that breakfast helps you improve your memory. During night sleep, our body does not get food, but our organs are still working. They work by using energy from glucose, glycogen and insulin. Then in the morning, glucose, glycogen, and insulin levels drop significantly, and this causes memory impairment. According to a study by Nissa Awaliyah in 2018, 68% of students have short-term memory loss due to skipping breakfast. This will affect the success of students. Therefore, breakfast can replace reduced glucose, glycogen and insulin levels. The higher the glucose level, the better the memory.
From what I have explained, we can conclude that breakfast is really important for us. Without breakfast, it will be difficult for us to concentrate, our memory will deteriorate, which will also affect our achievements, and in the long run, we can become malnourished.
