False.
Simple carbohydrates (sugars) are digested quickly and cause rapid blood‑sugar spikes and crashes, leaving you hungry soon after. For most people a breakfast with complex carbohydrates (whole grains, fruit, vegetables), plus protein and healthy fat, gives steadier energy, better satiety, and more nutrients.
Exceptions: quick sugars can be useful immediately after intense exercise or to rapidly raise blood sugar in hypoglycemia. Examples of better breakfasts: oatmeal with fruit and nuts, whole‑grain toast with eggs/avocado, yogurt with berries and seeds. Examples of simple‑carb breakfasts to limit: sugary cereal, pastries, and sweetened drinks.
