Breakfast Insights: How Filipinas Can Start Mornings Better

The Morning Reality for Filipinas

Insights into the morning routines of Filipina reveal a common story: most understand how important breakfast is, but it’s often the first thing to go when mornings get busy. Not from a lack of care — but because their mornings are full of responsibilities that often come before their own.

From preparing meals and getting kids ready, to responding to work messages or heading out to school, many women begin their day already in motion. This is part of the "double burden" many Filipinas experience — juggling professional work with domestic responsibilities (Philippine Commission on Women, 2022).

Some of the most common reasons for skipping breakfast include:

• Not enough time to prepare

• Waking up late

• Having to take care of others

• No food readily available

These patterns reflect broader global trends, showing that women are more likely to skip meals or eat less to prioritize others (FAO, 2020).

The Ripple Effect of Skipping Breakfast

While skipping breakfast may seem minor, it can take a toll on a woman’s day. Without that essential first meal, many experience a drop in energy, mental fog, increased cravings, or emotional strain like irritability or stress. The body runs low, the mind slows down, and the morning becomes harder than it has to be.

But here’s the good news: even small changes can make a big difference.
