Studies show that eating a proper breakfast is one of the most positive things you can do if you are trying to lose weight.
According to ACE fitness, breakfast skippers tend to gain weight. A balanced breakfast includes fresh fruit or fruit juice, a high-fibre breakfast cereal, low-fat milk or yoghurt, wholewheat toast, and a boiled egg.
Experts have concluded the importance of breakfast, and health experts unanimously agree that breakfast is indeed the most important meal of the day, and a good nutritious breakfast is the foundation of long, healthy and vibrant life.
Eating breakfast is the secret to healthy living. Those who eat nutritious breakfast daily generally have lower cholesterol levels, which are associated with reduced risk of heart disease and diabetes.
Studies have proven that those who skip breakfast are less efficient, both mentally and physically, when compared to those who had adequate breakfasts. Eating a nutritionist breakfast gives you the competitive edge both at work and at home. It improves your thinking ability and memory, and keeps you at top mental performances and gives you improved strength and endurance. Breakfast skippers, on the other hand, are generally more irritable, moody and tire easily.
While a good breakfast is vital, eating a heavy breakfast, one which is high in carbohydrates and fat, may actually do you more harm than good. Heavy, non nutritionist breakfast are often linked to that mid morning slump, and the inability to focus and concentrate at work. Hence, it is imperative to ensure that you are getting a nutritionist breakfast without overeating.
Scientific evidence found that children who eat nutritionist breakfast tend to have higher grades in school. They have better concentration, alertness and more energy, and can retain knowledge faster and think more clearly to outperform non breakfast eaters.
Children who do not eat nutritious breakfast become tired and do not pay as much attention in school, especially in the late morning. A nutritionist breakfast also prevents children from overeating later in the day, hence they are less likely to become overweight.
If you are struggling with weight problems, skipping breakfast may appear like a smart way o cut caloric intake and prevent overeating, but do you realize that the very opposite is true? Research actually shows that people who eat a healthy breakfast are less likely to become overweight.
The ideal breakfast should be exceptional in quality, with all the nutrients that the body needs for the day, including vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, essential fats, enzymes, antioxidants, essential amino acids, probiotics and prebiotics, brain foods, fibre, phytonutrients, cardiovascular protectors, immune boosters and bone builders.
When you do not eat breakfast, you metabolism plummets. If you’re trying to lose weight, this is the last thing you want. Eating a healthy breakfast helps you control your impulse to eat when you are stressed out, prevents you from snacking between meals and overeating at lunch time, and jump starts your metabolism for the day, and revving up your fat burning ability for enhanced weight loss.
