Does Skipping Breakfast Boost Brain Health?


Thursday, April 16th, 2026 • 12 to 1 pm Central Time • Zoom (virtual)

Intermittent fasting is everywhere right now—but what does the research actually say about its effects on the brain?
 
Join the LEAP! team for Does Skipping Breakfast Boost Brain Health?, a free webinar presented by Program Manager and registered dietitian Rachel Sandoval.
 
On April 16th from 12 pm to 1 pm CT, we’ll explore different types of intermittent fasting, what current research suggests about its possible effects on brain and metabolic health, and how to think about this approach in the context of overall brain-healthy eating. There will also be plenty of time for Q&A.
