High-carb breakfast helps you make better decisions
Eating a high-carb breakfast, which includes bread, cheese and milk, may help you make good decisions throughout the day, say scientists who found that people who consume a lean meal in the morning tend to accept unfair financial offers.
Berlin: Eating a high-carb breakfast, which includes bread, cheese and milk, may help you make good decisions throughout the day, say scientists who found that people who consume a lean meal in the morning tend to accept unfair financial offers.
Researchers said that people's decision-making was often influenced by the amount of carbohydrates and protein contained in their breakfast. The study participants were more likely to reject an unfair financial offer if they had filled up on carbs that morning.
However, if they had eaten a lower-carb, higher-protein breakfast, they were more apt to accept such offers. According to Soyoung Park from the University of Luebeck, in Germany, after a high-carb breakfast people tended to have lower levels of an amino acid called tyrosine.
Tyrosine is important in producing brain chemicals like dopamine - which is part of the brain's "reward system."
