Topic: Ten minute breakfast
Purpose: To inform
Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about several unexpected benefits that we can get from eating breakfast.
Central Idea: People who normally consume breakfast will get several benefits not only on their health but also their weight. Introduction

How many times have you skipped breakfast because you are too rushing to go to class? Many of you may think that breakfast is not such an important meal. However, you may not notice that just a quick ten minute breakfast can somehow change your life. Surprisingly, many of you who are on diet may not know that not eating breakfast is not going to help you lose any weight but gain more instead. In my speech you will receive lots of unexpected information that you may never think of. Therefore I would like to divide my speech into two main parts, (1) the benefits of breakfast on your health (2) how breakfast can help you to reduce weight.

Transition: [Let’s start with the first main part, how breakfast is good for your health]

Body

1. Benefits of breakfast on health. A. Skipping breakfast is like when you forget to fill some gas in your car Having breakfast in the morning, it will help body to produce Glucose and other essential nutrients such as, calcium, B6, Foliate, and Iron. Skipping breakfast our body will stop producing glucose. But then our body will release another kind of glucose instead, which is called glycogen, this kind of glucose normally be stored in our lungs and liver, but will come out to serve our energy when there is no normal glucose that we get from food. And if, this glycogen has been used, the body will next break down the fatty acid. This fatty acid will automatically reduce our energy level which causes us not to be able to concentrate in class, and hard to joy other activities (Breakfast, 2008).

B. Some menus of breakfast such as high fiber

    Firstly, I support the breakfast program because kids will have better health. For example, by eating breakfast kids have energy. For me, when I wake up in the morning I feel like going back to sleep. After hurrying to school and skipping breakfast I become distracted in class and my stomach begins to ache. However, with the breakfast program kids will come to school unstressed about missing breakfast and will be wide awake, full of energy and ready to learn. Adding the breakfast program will guarantee that kids maintain energy and succeed in school. Another example of why I support the breakfast program is because without breakfast you will develop a belly and/or become overweight. Without starting your metabolism early in the day, when lunch comes an issue occurs. Without breakfast you’re metabolism starts late in the day which will overall result in a very slow metabolism. However, with the breakfast program this obesity will not be an issue in this school district. The breakfast program will definitely help prevent kid and teen obesity.…

    During my three-day food intake I learned about myself. There are many benefits of good nutrition. ”Medical Online” states “besides helping you maintain a healthy weight, good nutrition is essential for the body and all its system to function optimally for a lifetime.” A healthy diet promotes good sleep, gives the body what it needs to stay healthy, and provides energy. According to “Mealtime Memo” Good nutrition means getting the calories that we need for energy and the nutrients we need for proper growth. I’m learning that variety, balance, and moderation are the key to healthy nutrition. As I am learning what I should and should not eat I will like you to invite you to take a look at my food intake. This essay will converse about my intake of protein, carbohydrates, lipids, macronutrients intake ranges, fiber intake ranges, and dietary modifications based on three full days of my food intake. After recording my dietary intake for three days through the Wiley iProfile and reviewing the reports, I have found that this provides a better scope of my eating habits and the nutritional value in each thing I eat.…

    I often see my sister just grabbing a cup of yogurt for breakfast, not supplying her with nearly enough of the nutritional values she needs. She has traded a nutritious breakfast for extra minutes of sleep. She is not alone in her actions. Many of my other friends choose not to participate in eating breakfast either. With a change in the schedule, more students would eat breakfast in the mornings. By allowing them more time to get ready in the morning, students will not be as rushed. With more students now getting a more nutritious meal in the morning, it will boost attention in classes, keep students awake, and students will be more…
