Recent research out of Harvard suggests men who skip breakfast are far more likely to have a heart attack or die from heart disease. But, Cornell University scientists earlier this month found skipping breakfast might in fact be a healthy way to lose weight. Leah E. Cahill, a postdoctoral research fellow in the nutrition department at HSPH is the lead author of the Harvard study. Eric Rimm, HMS associate professor of medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, is the co-author.
