Making Your Breakfast Healthier

They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and this is true for two reasons: Firstly, it is true because, when it comes time for breakfast, you have been sleeping all night and will literally be "breaking a fast"; Secondly, it is true because your breakfast foods will be the foods you are starting your day with! While many people are "too busy" to eat breakfast (which is certainly a bad thing), many others are "too busy" to eat a healthy breakfast (which is nearly as bad!).

Even though you are likely busy most of the time, you should not start your day eating something like a doughnut or a pastry; because you have not eaten in a while, your body will store the fat from these foods, and furthermore, these foods provide you with nothing but empty calories!

Oats are a great food to start your day with, as oats give you energy and are also good for your body; oatmeal is, of course, a great way to get oats at the start of the day, but if you do not like oatmeal, try eating an oat bar or a bowl of cereal.

Yogurt is another great food to start your day with; rather than purchasing sugar-filled yogurt that is really nothing more than a dessert, however, take the time to shop for some organic yogurt that is actually healthy, as this will be a great way for you to start the morning!

Of course, fruit is a tremendous choice for breakfast, and like most of these other foods, fruit is easy to bring with you on the road - which means you can eat it even if you are "too busy" to make yourself breakfast!

Once you begin to kick off your morning with these foods, you will feel a big difference in your energy throughout the day, and your body will start to be much healthier than it had been before!
