The Formula For The Perfect Breakfast

We should eat cereal standing up - but never in a round bowl. This research was conducted by neuroscience research consultant of Oxford University. She said that eating cereal from a square bowl will make you feel fuller than eating from a round one as it increases the brain's perception of nutrition.

She made the findings after carrying out a two-day experiment with 78 women to find out which way of eating breakfast left participants fuller and more energised.

'Participants who consumed cereal from a round shaped bowl found it less nutritious than those eating from a square shaped bowl. The interviews conducted with the women who took part in the experiment suggest many of us eat with our eyes, because the cereal looked more appetising in a square shaped bowl the women found it more nutritious. She added: 'More than ever, people are eating 'on the go', and we found that eating standing up actually increased how wholesome people thought the cereal was. Based on this new evidence it could be argued that when we're not sitting down at a breakfast table, our brain's perception of nutrition is higher.'
