By addressing issues every day, and providing access to care when patients need it, unnecessary emergency department visits are minimized and overall health is improved. PHN is a partnership between Geisinger hospitals, its primary care network, and its insurer, Geisinger Health Plan (GHP).
We can't live on air and sunshine alone. The human body needs food and water to survive. A human can go for more than three weeks without food (Mahatma Gandhi survived 21 days of complete starvation), but water is a different story. At least 60% of the adult body is made of it and every living cell in the body needs it to keep functioning.
Eating Breakfast Gives Your Metabolism a Boost. Maintaining a good metabolism is an important part of long term weight loss. After a night without eating, your body is in a mild fasting state, as it would be if no food was available. If you don't eat until lunch time, that can be up to 18 hours without food. For the entire morning, instead of working at peak rates and burning off more calories, your body will be trying to conserve everything it can. Eating a healthy breakfast will speed up your metabolism and make it work harder.
