Champilomati G, Notara V, Prapas C, et al. - In this cross-sectional survey involving 1,728 children (aged 10 to 12 years) and their parents, researchers explored the connection between breakfast consumption and childhood weight status in relation to various socioeconomic and lifestyle factors. This investigation was carried out in the greater metropolitan Athens area, in Heraklion, the capital city of the island of Crete, and in three main counties of the Peloponnese peninsula (Sparta, Kalamata, Pyrgos), during the school years 2014–2015 and 2015–2016. The finding that the frequency of breakfast consumption has not been correlated with the overweight/obesity of children may result in a deeper investigation of the foods consumed during breakfast. Chocolate milk and bread or rusks appeared to have a protective effect. The potential mechanisms of this observation need further nutritional analysis.
