Breakfast Foods

 

Does what you eat in the morning affect your mental and physical activities?

 In the beginning we predicted that eating the cereal, Special K, and milk would get the highest test score and the best running time because it has two servings from two food groups and that the fruits would come in second and the eating nothing would come in third and we expected that eating high sugar foods would have the lowest test scores and the slowest running time.

Our hypothesis was wrong in our math test the fruit breakfast received the best results not the cereal and milk. In the memorizing tests, our results proved that no breakfast was better than the others. Our running results proved that eating that cereal and that eating fruit improved the running times.

The factors which may have affected our results include: the tests may have been easy one day and hard on another day and the results may have been affected because we might not have had the exact right times when the finished running three laps.

If we were to revise the experiment we would test more people and we would get different age categories to see which one would be more affected.

Our results prove that eating a good breakfast (not sugar or nothing) could improve your running time so then people may want to eat a good breakfast before a test or any exercise including running.
