It's been said breakfast is the most important meal of the day. People who eat breakfast weigh less, while those who skip this "breaking fast" meal typically weigh more. Studies have shown that eating breakfast is associated with improved strength and endurance in the late morning, along with a better attitude toward school or work.
Studies show that your brain requires an adequate supply of readily available glucose (sugar converted from carbohydrates) to function well. Eating breakfast replenishes blood glucose levels, a vital factor in performance as the brain cannot store reserves of glucose.
Breakfast also jump starts your metabolism, important for weight control. Below are some breakfast recipes to jump start your day. Always be sure to balance your meals with adequate protein, a small serving of a whole grain carb or fruit, and a small amount of healthy fat.
