What is the most commonly skipped meal among adolescents? How does this affect overall nutrient intake?
What will be an ideal response?
Breakfast is the most commonly skipped meal, with only 36 percent of adolescents reporting eating breakfast daily, and 14 percent of students skipping breakfast every day. Skipping breakfast can dramatically decrease intakes of energy, protein, fiber, calcium, and folate due to the absence of breakfast cereal or other nutrient-dense foods commonly consumed at breakfast.
