Breakfast bridges the long fasting hours of the night and prepares the body and brain for the day ahead. Research consistently shows that eating breakfast is linked to better health outcomes, improved concentration, and enhanced academic performance.

In a study using data from the 2018 Expanded National Nutrition Survey (ENNS) of the DOST-FNRI, 96-98% of Filipinos aged six years and above regularly eat breakfast, highlighting how deeply embedded this habit is in Filipino households.

However, high consumption does not always mean adequate nutrition. Typical Filipino breakfast, which is often composed of rice, eggs, fish, and coffee or chocolate drinks, does not provide at least 20% of the recommended daily intake for key nutrients such as calcium, fiber, vitamin C, and potassium. These nutrients are commonly found in milk, fruits, and vegetables, which are often lacking in morning meals.

In support of better nutrition outcomes for Filipino schoolchildren, the DOST-FNRI encourages the Department of Health-Health Promotion Bureau (DOH-HPB) and the Department of Education (DepEd) to strengthen initiatives that promote nutrient-adequate breakfast choices.
