#23Yikes, I hate to be "that" person, but when I pulled up that link it was worse than a paywall. They said I can either subscribe, or whitelist them on my adblocker. No preview of the content or anything. No thanks, I'll take a pass on the malware this time and just read the comments from people willing to get through on here.
No need to hate being that person! The bullshit paywalls are obnoxious! It's good to know I'm not the only one annoyed!
Honestly, how are they obnoxious? They're asking you to pay for a service. I wish there were more paywalls in online journalism. Low-quality ad-funded journalism is how we get clickbait and crap like the Huffington Post.

#24Isn't the first meal that you eat in the day your "breakfast?" Because wouldn't that be the time you "break" your "fast".
Only in English ;)
In PT-BR, our term translates to "morning coffee", and in PT-PT translates as "little lunch" (from french, petit déjeuner).
(Actually we also have a translation for breakfast - desjejum - but its not commonly used.)

#25Why does everything have to be so polarized anymore?
"Breakfast isn't magical" isn't a polarized position. The polar opposite of "breakfast is magical" is "breakfast is evil", a position this article is at pains not to take.

#26As somebody who does weight lifting I can say from my experience that I performed much worse back then when I didn't take the time to eat a breakfast before going to the fitness studio.
I actually even had to stop the training sometimes because I had to vomit. (probably too low blood sugar)
During that time I made very slow progress.
Since I started to eat breakfast 2-3 hours before training I never had any issues and I also gain more weight (muscles)

I think this is the important part. Breakfast (the morning meal) isn't the critical factor, it's having the nutrients (proteins, sugars, etc.) in your body when you need it. If you worked out in the evening, like me, you'd probably find that a decent sized lunch + a small mid-afternoon snack would be fine, breakfast optional.

#29Why does everything have to be so polarized anymore?
In the case of articles like this one, it's because a lot of old propaganda, superstition, myths and common sense lessons deriving from apocryphal tales last forever, and are impervious to new information (or more often the ending of the suppression of old information.)
One of the reasons they are so hard to update is because these same media outlets and government agencies were the ones that foisted the myths on us in the first place, usually for money, and they are now telling us the truth about some things with the same tone as they told us the lies.
