“…The current study reported a breakfast-skipping rate of 45.2% in line with a previous study published in Japan and reported a prevalence of 39.2% [ 11 ]. The current findings are in line with a recent study published in the USA [ 12 ]. The association between breakfast skipping and BMI was discussed controversially (some found an association [ 13 ] while others found no relationship [ 14 ]).…”

“…Nevertheless, some studies indicate an absence of connection between breakfast skipping and obesity, while others suggested that breakfast skipping could lead to body weight loss [ 22 , 23 ]. Furthermore, breakfast skipping was linked with an elevated risk of many diseases, such as depression, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, and some cancers [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ].…”

Breakfast skipping is linked with obesity incidence. This study was conducted to assess the prevalence of breakfast skipping among a multi-ethnic population of young men residing in Saudi Arabia and its relationship with sociodemographic determinants and weight status. A total of 3600 young men aged 20 to 35 years and living in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, were involved in this cross-sectional study. Sociodemographic determinants and breakfast-consumption frequency were collected from subjects by personal interviews. This study defines breakfast skipping as skipping breakfast at least one day per week. Weight and height were measured following standardized methods. The prevalence of breakfast skipping was observed among 52.8% of the study subjects. Nationality was a predictor of breakfast skipping, with the lowest and highest rates of breakfast skipping reported among young men from Bangladesh (14.0%) and Saudi Arabia (86.5%), respectively. Weight status was another predictor of breakfast skipping, as the mean body mass index for breakfast skippers (25.4 kg/m2) was significantly (p-value < 0.001) higher than that for breakfast consumers (24.8 kg/m2). Overweight/obese subjects have a significantly higher rate of breakfast skipping (56.9%) than underweight/normal weight subjects (48.9%). In conclusion, breakfast skipping prevalence is relatively high among young men residing in Saudi Arabia. The findings confirm a relationship between breakfast skipping and sociodemographic determinants and weight status.

“…Inconsistent meal timing is emerging as a key driver of metabolic dysfunction that underlies chronic diseases like cancer [ 25 ]. Furthermore, breakfast skipping, which has also been associated with obesity, cardiometabolic diseases, and mortality, was common and was noted to be a cultural phenomenon also influenced by busy schedules [ 59 – 62 ]. Consequently, tackling inconsistent meal timing and skipped meals may be important dietary behaviors to target in the NHPI community.…”

Purpose Determine sociocultural influences on dietary behavior, body image, weight loss, and perceptions of the cultural appropriateness of a meal-timing intervention design and menu among Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) women at risk of endometrial cancer. Methods Six 90-min videoconference focus groups among NHPI women ( n = 35) recruited by a community champion in Utah. Eligible women were aged ≥ 18 years at risk of endometrial cancer (i.e., BMI ≥ 25 kg/m 2 , history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes or complex atypical endometrial hyperplasia) had a working cell phone capable of downloading a phone app, could use their cell phone during the day, and were not night-shift workers. Twelve semi-structured questions were posed during the focus groups. Using inductive qualitative methods based on Hatch’s 9-step approach, de-identified transcript data were analyzed. Results Overarching themes included economic factors, cultural influences, meal choice and timing, and perceptions of health. Subthemes included affordability, waste avoidance, inundated schedules, and cultural influences. Perceptions of body size and weight loss were influenced by family, community, and social media, whose messages could be conflicting. Important intervention components included satisfying, convenient pre-made meals, while barriers included the need to cook for family members. Conclusions Dietary interventions targeting metabolic health among NHPI women should consider the multitude of sociocultural and economic factors that influence food choices and meal timing in this population, including affordability, hectic schedules, and immigrant adjustment. Promoting the link between physical and mental well-being as opposed to weight loss is a key approach to reaching this population.
