Skipping breakfast does not accelerate the hyperglycemia-induced endothelial dysfunction but reduces blood flow of the brachial artery in young men.

Skipping breakfast did not enhance the magnitude of the decrease in FMD following glucose loading, but did accelerate hyperglycemia-induced reduction in brachial blood flow. Current findings suggest that even missing one breakfast has negative impacts on the blood flow regulation of the peripheral conduit arteries in young men who habitually eat breakfast.
