Nutrition article : Breakfast: It Does a Body Good

0 Reviews [ add review ], Article rating : 0.00, 0 votes. Author : Aimee Deak

A well-balanced breakfast consisting of protein, complex carbohydrates and a little fat is vital. Studies show that people who eat breakfast have a higher level of energy and avoid the "crash" or feeling of sluggishness that is common for those who skip breakfast and eat a huge lunch.

Slow burning carbohydrates such as oatmeal and whole grain cereals (not corn flakes or processed cereals) are excellent choices for breakfast. Oats are filling and are "slow burning," which means that they are broken down, and converted to blood sugar slowly through the morning and will give you sustained energy. Add a piece of fruit, a scoop of protein powder and some non-fat milk and you have a terrific breakfast. If you have a little bit more time, you could scramble a few egg whites or egg substitute.

Remember, if you don't feed yourself a small wholesome meal in the morning, your body will draw on your muscle tissue as a

source of energy, putting you in an energy slump and in muscle deficit. This means your body will eat your muscle to fuel your activities and your body fat will grow.

If you need to lose a lot of fat, the best time of day to eat your biggest meal is breakfast. Studies show that most of the calories eaten in the morning are burned right away rather than being stored as fat. There is truth to the old saying:

"Eat breakfast like a King, lunch like a Prince and dinner like a Pauper."

Taper your meals, making breakfast the biggest meal and dinner the smallest

Be Well & Stay Fit!
