Did you know ...

... what a good breakfast is supposed to be?

Well, it should meet four major criteria ~
1. Restore the energy spent in the last 24 hours.
2. Restore the building materials spent during the night.
3. Replenish the water stock.
4. Maintain the blood sugar level within the normal range and prevent insulin surge.

Maintaining a healthy and good breakfast will help to solve many unhealthy and unwanted problems. Disciplined with good breakfast will provide the body with all vital nutrients and water.

It will also provide energy from proteins and not from carbohydrates. Besides, when your food intake in the morning is correct, it does not raise or drop blood sugar level.

Good breakfast helps to cleanse the intestine, improve absorption of nutrients and maintain water balance during the day. So do start with healthy food. Do not eat easy and simple carbohydrates ~ like chocolate, sweet coffee, cookies, doughnuts, softdrinks, to overcome your morning hunger.

It will only raise your blood sugar level and free you of hunger and weakness. Each sugar “injection” is followed by the insulin surge. woowwww...no wonder that's one reason for developing diabetes.

Do not skip breakfast too. When your body wakes up “empty” in the morning, most of your body's 100 trillion cells beg you, “Hey, give me back all the nutrients, energy and water I spent in the last 24 hours”.

You may not feel hungry or thirsty in the morning, but it’s just a matter of time. So do have a good breakfast.
