While there are many who skip their breakfast, it has always been recommended as an important meal of the day. On the same lines, researchers have come forward to claim that there is significant connection one being academically sound and their first meal of the day.

There is need for parents to make their kids understand that they must take nutritional diet to be academically sound. For the study, the team examined the impact of low GI diet on 60 students roped in, and found that they did considerably well in solving math questions.

It was Dr. Alan Barclay from the Glycemic Index Foundation (Australia and New Zealand) who said that those consuming a low GI breakfast are more likely to perform well in the school. The Glycemic Index (GI) determines how carbohydrates make the body healthy and maintain the glucose levels. It is imperative for one to keep a track on the level of GI.

It was further told that low GI is made up of wholegrain cereals, natural mueslis and fresh fruit and vegetables. Once cannot overlook the fact that a normal flow of blood is required for a healthy body.

“It provides a more constant level of blood glucose compared with the fluctuating glycemic response to a high GI breakfast, resulting in a smaller decline in concentration”, said Dr. Alan Barclay, while asserting that there is need for one to consume a healthy nutritional diet before they move for their daily chores.

While in today’s world, where one is offered range of eating options, there is need for one to take rational approach on what they eat instead of gorging on whatever served. There have been incessant efforts made in the direction of making one understand the value of nutrition, however, nothing much has been achieved so far.
