Throw the old habit of binging on a luncheon feast at night. Mornings are made to have breakfast like that of a king. Remember that old adage “have a breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper”? Looks like it could be the best way to lose weight and stay healthy, scientists say.
Why? Studies show that eating a good breakfast is important for blood sugar regulation, adrenal health and immune system. Imagine, you just woke up from fasting for eight hours (more or less) and your body needs nourishment. Have some protein, carbs and fats for breakfast.
Eating a good lunch is also important since you have half of the day left; and have a small dinner like that of a pauper and rise and feast like a king again in the morning.
Dr. Joey Villanueva, medical practitioner and occupational health physician couldn’t agree more.
“Yes, the name itself tells you why it is important. But then of course, it depends on what kind of food you eat at breakfast,” he said.
A study done by American Dietetic Association (ADA) about eating breakfast said children who eat breakfast have better performance at school as they have better concentration, problem-solving skills, and eye-hand coordination.
Nowadays, Dubai has given foodies a lot of options for breakfast and Chowking has recently joined the list by launching morning meals as well as Super Value Meals available for the rest of the day.
The breakfast meals start at Dh10 while the Super Value Kings, available throughout the day, is Dh12, each with an add-on of clear soup for Dh 2 only.
“We are trying to bring a lot of new things to our patrons. If you remember, we have re-launched and upgraded our Chinese Lauriat meals with the same price and now we have launched these breakfast meals and Super Value Kings for affordable prices,” Aditya Kambli, marketing manager, said.
Early risers can choose from dasilog, tapsilog, lomi, congee and the King’s Breakfast which is a big meal with two viands.
For lunch and dinner, diners can try the Super Value King meals where they can feast on either shanghai spring roll with beef chao fan, breaded fish with rice, three pieces fried chicken, siomai with beef chao fan, two pieces Asian-style fried chicken with rice and gravy or one piece Asian-style fried chicken served with canton noodles and rice.
