Brainy Breakfasts

 

By the time you tumble out of bed in the morning and make your way to the kitchen, it could be anywhere from 6 to 14 hours since your last meal. Although it may not be immediately obvious, every single cell in your body, and brain, is depleted of energy and dehydrated.

​

Low energy = low performance
A nutrient-dense balanced breakfast is the best, and arguably the only way, to: 

​

• enjoy great energy all day long,

• avoid that 3pm slump which leaves you reaching for coffee and sugary afternoon snacks

• improve stress resilience and reduce emotional eating

• control cravings  

• ensure balanced mood

• maximise your mental clarity, creativity, problem solving, ability to connect and communicate with others... in other words, breakfast goes a long way to determining your quality of life! 

​

If you want to improve your energy, mental agility and physical performance, then get in the habit of starting the day with a combination of protein, healthy fats, fibre and slow carbohydrates.
