Your Breakfast Is More Important Than Your Lunch Or Dinner!

You've heard it before and you'll hear it again: breakfast is the most important meal of the day and eating it sets the tone for a healthy eating habit. It's also a great way to get slim. Don't believe me? Read on!

Here are 5 ways to make the most of your morning meal.

1. Eat protein

The international Journal of Obesity reported that overweight people who ate two eggs for breakfast daily for two months, as part of a calorie-reduced diet, lost 65 percent more weight than those who ate a bagel of equal calories.

Study author Nikhil Dhurandhar, associate professor at the Louisiana State University System, says high-quality protein foods, such as eggs, make you feel full longer.

2. Less Carbohydrate 

Breakfast is usually the most carbohydrate-heavy meal of the day. Try to limit breakfast carbs to one serving. Have one slice of bread instead of two, small potion of rice instead of a whole one, and pour only 200 to 250 millilitres (3/4 to one cup) cold cereal instead of a huge bowlful.

3. Cut-down On The Breakfast Drinks 

Fruit juice is fine for you, but only in moderation. Drink too much, and it quickly becomes a high-GL (and high-calorie) food.

4. Skip The Coffee?

Consider it if you’re overweight or diabetic. A recent study led by Graham found that caffeinated coffee combined with low-sugar cereal raised blood-sugar levels for many hours. Graham thinks caffeine makes the body resistant to insulin, increasing blood sugar and thereby leading to high calorie. 

5. Load Up In The Morning 

The more we eat for breakfast versus other meals, the less likely we are to gain weight, says a study out of Cambridge, England.

If you start the day with a healthy breakfast, you're more likely to stay off the blood sugar rollercoaster and eat less all day long.
