The Claim

Young women who skipped breakfast ended up eating less overall in the next two hours than those who ate either yogurt or coconut cereal — which seems surprising, but the study found it.

Source: The effects of cultured dairy and non-dairy products added to breakfast cereals on blood glucose control, satiation, satiety, and short-term food intake in young women.

See the scientific wording

Cumulative food intake over two hours is significantly lower after skipping breakfast (water control) than after consuming either a dairy or non-dairy breakfast in young women.

What the research says

1 study

  1. Study: The effects of cultured dairy and non-dairy products added to breakfast cereals on blood glucose control, satiation, satiety, and short-term food intake in young women.

    Skipping breakfast made women hungrier later, so they ate more over the next two hours compared to when they ate either a dairy or non-dairy breakfast — meaning eating breakfast, no matter which kind, helps reduce how much you eat later.
