Welcome back to Everyday English Talk.
4
I'm Ben.
5
And I'm Anna.
6
Hello everyone.
7
Today we are talking about a very interesting health topic.
8
It is a big question for many people.
9
Exactly.
10
We are looking at morning habits.
11
Is breakfast really the most important meal of the day?
12
I am always too busy for breakfast.
13
And I want to lose fat,
14
so I just drink black coffee.
15
Is that bad, Ben?
16
Oh, I definitely think you need to change that habit.
17
Let's get into it.
18
So, let's talk about the problem first.
19
Every morning, my alarm rings and I am already late.
20
I have no time to cook.
21
That is a very normal morning for many people.
22
So, what do you do about food?
23
I do not eat anything.
24
I completely skip my breakfast.
25
I just drink a large cup of black coffee and run out the door.
26
To skip something means you choose not to do it.
27
You choose not to eat your morning meal.
28
Exactly.
29
I skip it because I am busy,
30
but also for another reason.
31
I read on the internet that not eating in the morning is a great way to burn fat.
32
Ah, yes.
33
Many people talk about intermittent fasting right now.
34
It is a very popular trend to lose weight.
35
Right.
36
So I think, this is perfect.
37
I save time and I get thin.
38
But there is a big problem.
39
What happens when you get to the office?
40
How do you feel?
41
For the first hour, I feel okay because of the coffee.
42
But around 10 or 11 o'clock, I feel terrible.
43
How exactly do you feel terrible?
44
Tell me the symptoms.
45
I feel incredibly hungry.
46
My stomach makes loud noises.
47
I feel very tired.
48
My hands start to shake a little bit,
49
and I cannot focus on my work at all.
50
That sounds awful.
51
Your brain is basically shutting down before lunchtime.
52
Yes.
53
I look at the clock and wait for lunchtime like a crazy person.
54
Why does this happen?
55
I thought skipping breakfast was a healthy hack for my body.
56
That is a very big misconception.
57
A wrong idea.
58
People think they can trick their bodies.
59
They think, if I eat less often,
60
I will automatically lose weight and look great.
61
That is exactly what I thought.
62
I thought my body would just use my belly fat for energy.
63
It sounds logical, but your body does not work like a simple machine.
64
When you do not eat for a very long time, your body panics.
65
It thinks you are starving
66
so my body thinks there is no food in the world yes
67
and because of this panic you actually create more problems for your weight
68
and your health wow so my morning coffee habit is actually making me tired
69
and not helping me lose weight exactly we need to look inside the body to see what happens
70
when you go to work with an empty stomach let's find
71
out the truth welcome back everyone let's look at the facts first we need to carefully understand what happens
72
while you are sleeping at night
73
well i am just resting in my bed my body is doing nothing at all not exactly your body is resting
74
but it is also fasting that means you are not eating
75
or drinking anything for seven or eight hours
76
that is true i definitely do not eat while i am asleep
77
so when you wake up in the morning your blood sugar is naturally very low blood sugar what does
78
that phrase mean blood sugar is the main energy floating in
79
your blood it comes directly from the food you eat it is the essential energy
80
that makes your brain think and your muscles move.
81
Okay, I understand that.
82
So in the morning, my blood sugar is very low because I haven't eaten food for a very long time.
83
Yes, think about your mobile phone.
84
When you wake up, your phone battery is at 100% because you plugged it in all night.
85
But your human body's battery,
86
your blood sugar, is completely empty.
87
Oh, so my body battery is almost dead when I wake up.
88
Exactly.
89
And what do you do?
90
You go straight to the office.
91
You use your brain to read complex emails.
92
You use your body to walk around.
93
But you do not give your body any new energy.
94
No wonder my hands shake at 11 o'clock.
95
My poor brain has zero energy to work.
96
Right.
97
This brings us to fact number two, the dangerous overeating trap.
98
The overeating trap?
99
But I am trying to eat less food so I can lose weight.
100
I know you are trying to be healthy,
101
but when your blood sugar is extremely low, your brain panics.
102
It sends a very strong emergency signal to your stomach.
103
What kind of emergency signal?
104
The signal makes you crave bad food.
105
To crave means to want to eat something very, very badly.
106
You cannot stop thinking about the food.
107
That is so incredibly true.
108
At 11 o'clock, I don't want a healthy green salad.
109
I crave a huge greasy hamburger,
110
or a big slice of pizza, or three chocolate donuts.
111
exactly When you are starving,
112
you do not make smart, healthy choices.
113
You just want fast energy right now.
114
So, when lunchtime finally comes,
115
you eat way too much food.
116
You eat many more calories than if you had just eaten a normal breakfast.
117
Oh no. So I skip breakfast to lose weight,
118
but then I eat a giant lunch and gain weight instead?
119
That is terrible.
120
Yes, that is the trap.
121
So, what is the best solution?
122
How do we fix this morning problem easily?
123
Please tell me, Ben.
124
I want to have good energy,
125
and I do not want to crave donuts every day at my desk.
126
Solution number one is very simple.
127
You must fuel up your body in the morning.
128
Fuel up?
129
Like putting gas in a car at a gas station?
130
Yes, exactly.
131
To fuel up means to give your body the energy it needs to start the day.
132
If you want to drive a car,
133
you have to put gas in it first.
134
If you want to use your brain,
135
you must put food in your stomach first.
136
That makes perfect sense to me.
137
I cannot drive an empty car,
138
so I need to fuel up.
139
But Ben, what should I eat?
140
Can I just eat a sweet cookie with my coffee?
141
No, that is the worst thing you can do for your body.
142
A sweet cookie will give you energy for 20 minutes and then you will crash and feel tired again.
143
This is solution number two.
144
You need a protein-rich breakfast.
145
Protein-rich?
146
What kind of food is that?
147
Is it hard to find?
148
Not at all.
149
Protein-rich food simply has a lot of protein in it.
150
Protein is the strong stuff that builds your muscles and keeps your stomach feeling full for a very long time.
151
Great examples are eggs, milk,
152
plain yogurt, chicken, or nuts.
153
Oh, I see.
154
So a protein-rich meal is much better than a sugary sweet meal.
155
Much better.
156
If you eat two boiled eggs and an apple,
157
your blood sugar will go up slowly and stay perfectly steady.
158
You will have great, calm energy all morning.
159
You will not feel hungry at all until lunchtime.
160
That sounds absolutely amazing.
161
But Ben, we still have a big problem.
162
What is the problem, Anna?
163
I told you, I am always late in the morning.
164
I do not have time to cook eggs or fry chicken.
165
I only have 5 minutes before I have to leave my house.
166
That is a very common problem for busy people.
167
And that is exactly why we have solution number 3.
168
Prepare your food the night before.
169
Prepare it at night?
170
Like, cook my breakfast after I eat my dinner?
171
Yes, it is so incredibly easy.
172
You can boil three or four eggs on Sunday night and keep them safe in the fridge.
173
In the morning, you just take one egg,
174
peel the shell, and eat it.
175
It takes one minute.
176
Wow, that is really fast.
177
And an egg is a great protein-rich food, right?
178
Yes, it is perfect.
179
Or, you can put some dry oats and milk in a glass jar before you go to sleep.
180
Put it in the fridge overnight.
181
In the morning, you have a delicious,
182
cold meal, completely ready to eat.
183
That is brilliant.
184
I do not have to cook anything in the morning.
185
I can just open the fridge,
186
take my prepared food, and fuel up my body.
187
Exactly.
188
It only takes five short minutes of planning at night to save your entire morning.
189
You will have more steady energy,
190
you will work much better,
191
and you will not gain weight from eating fast food at lunch.
192
This is wonderful, practical advice, Ben.
193
I am going to boil some eggs tonight.
194
Tomorrow morning, I will definitely not skip my breakfast.
195
So, let's quickly recap today's episode.
196
Skipping breakfast can make you very tired and cause you to eat too much junk food later in the day.
197
Exactly.
198
Listen to your body and give it good energy in the morning.
199
Now, let's review five important words from today's talk.
200
Ben, what is number one?
201
Number one is skip.
202
To skip means to choose not to do something or not to have something.
203
For example, skipping breakfast means you choose not to eat it.
204
Number two is blood sugar.
205
This is the main energy in your blood that comes from food.
206
It gives your brain and muscles the power to work.
207
Number three is crave.
208
To crave means to want to eat something very badly.
209
When you are starving, you often crave unhealthy, sweet foods.
210
Number four is fuel up.
211
This is a great phrasal verb.
212
It means to give your body the energy it needs,
213
just like putting gas into a car.
214
You must fuel up in the morning.
215
And the last one, number five, is protein rich.
216
This describes food that has a lot of protein, like eggs and meat.
217
It keeps you feeling full for a long time.
218
That is all for today's episode of Everyday English Talk.
219
We hope you learned something new and useful for your busy mornings.
220

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
