Skipping breakfast and eating late significantly increases risk of death after heart attack

Rise and dine — and give yourself time to digest before bed.

That’s the bottom line from a new study published Thursday in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, which found that people who skip breakfast and eat a late dinner have much worse health outcomes after surviving a heart attack.

In fact, people who did both of these (common) eating habits were four to five times more likely to die, have another heart attack or suffer chest pain within 30 days after leaving the hospital.

“Our research shows that the two eating behaviors are independently linked with poorer outcomes after a heart attack, but having a cluster of bad habits will only make things worse,” wrote study author Dr. Marcos Minicucci, of São Paulo State University in Brazil.

He also warned that “People who work late may be particularly susceptible to having a late supper and then not being hungry in the morning.”

Agree. I skipped breakfast when I was a kid and still do. Healthy as a horse.

I go to work. Never take a break. No lunch, nothing. Drink coffee by the potful. Come home and eat like a python, washed down with copious amount of beer. Yeah, not exactly the Atkins diet, but I am good. No doctors, no meds. No aches and pains. Not bad for 60.

As a kid, I loved bacon...and now don’t care for it at all.

Actually, I find my menu quite tasty - especially the strawberries in the oatmeal with my banana chaser.

I do admit for a very high fondness of “Choc Choc Chip Soft Top” cookies from Krogers and ice cream in the summer.

The most common cause of heart attacks... Bad genes... If you have a family history of heart disease get yourself checked out as regularly as possible. If you don’t then you needn’t worry too much about what your lifestyle is like... Remember Jim Fixx???

All the running in the world didn’t stop him from succumbing to a heart attack while running at the age of 52.

Eating infrequently causes insulin to fluctuate more than eating smaller meals more often. And the body tends to store more fat when insulin levels are high. So less fat will tend to be stored from the same caloric intake if eaten in more frequent, smaller meals.

I still recommend Jim Fixx’s The Complete Book of Running. Some of it is outdated, but still a lot worth reading.

“The most common cause of heart attacks... Bad genes”

Amen. My father and I lived completely different lifestyles. He smoked, drank, etc. I did not, I exercised my whole life, ate Atkins diet for years. He died of heart attack at 58, I had massive heart attack at 59. I only survived because several things went exactly right.

I eat once a day, and it’s usually after 8 PM

Easy solution. Push your meal until after midnight and call it breakfast.

I think that most dietary issues will take care of themselves if a person eats modest meals and only when really hungry. Don't eat out of habit, don't keep eating when your full, and avoid snacking. In this case, do as I say, not as I do. I'm not good at consistently practicing that.

I rarely eat breakfast because I'm seldom hungry in the morning. For some reason, this morning I was. So I had breakfast. Probably won't eat lunch because I doubt I'll be hungry again until this evening.
