Study Shows Women Who Eat Breakfast Cereals Give Birth to More Boys - And I say bullshit

I found this from one of the site on the internet.
April 22, 2008 — In addition to being the most important meal of the day, breakfast may help determine your unborn baby’s sex.
In a newly reported study, women who ate breakfast cereal gave birth to more boys, while those who skipped breakfast had more girls.
IMHO, I think this research must be funded by the breakfast cereal companies.
Using this data, the researchers determined that women who ate the most calories around the time of conception delivered more boys, with 56% giving birth to male babies, compared with 45% of women who ate the fewest calories prior to conceiving.
Of those who reported eating breakfast cereal every day, 59% gave birth to boys compared with 43% of women who reported rarely or never eating cereal for breakfast, says Mathews.
In addition to consuming more calories prior to conception, women who gave birth to boys were also more likely to have eaten higher-quality diets with a wider range of nutrients, including potassium.
