The Best Breakfast Foods for a Better Body

We?ve all heard it before: ?Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.? But is it really that essential to an amazing body and great health, or has everything we were told been just an old wives? tale?

Most people have never really taken the time to sit down and think about what breakfast actually means. When you?re asleep, your body doesn?t take any sustenance for up to eight hours straight (or more if you?ve had a really long night). If you imagine that in daylight hours, you can imagine why you might wake up hungry.

Fortunately, your body responds to hours of sleeping by slowing down your metabolic rate, so that you don?t wake up during the night with vicious hunger pangs. By eating a great breakfast, you shake your metabolism awake and get all of the different parts of your engine running, ready to burn those calories and promote a hotter body.

The next time you?re rushing out of the door at the last minute, too late to even grab a slice of badly-buttered toast, consider the fact that skipping breakfast can lead you to overeat later in the day. A healthy meal during the AM can give you energy, satisfy your appetite, and push your brain to work better so that you continue to make smart decisions all day long.

So what makes up a marvelous & healthy breakfast? The experts say that you should aim for something that combines fiber, protein and good carbs. Fortunately, there are a number of options to choose from that tick all of those boxes.

Best Breakfast Foods for a Better Body

1.

contains something called beta-glucan, a form of fiber which has been proven to help in lowering dangerous cholesterol within a person?s body if it is eaten regularly. If you need another reason to start eating more oats, how about the fact that they are rich in potassium, folate, and even omega-3 fatty acids! Steel-cut oats, which usually take around 15 minutes to cook, contain more fiber than instant or rolled oat varieties, but just about any oatmeal you choose is bound to be a healthy option.

2.

If you?ve recently been struggling to lose weight, a study suggests that eating half a grapefruit before you tackle each meal could help you to slim down quicker than usual. This is because the fruit has amazing fat-burning properties, as well as helping insulin and blood sugar levels. What?s more, grapefruit is also filling, hydrating, and packed with antioxidants dedicated to improving your immune system. For a tremendous breakfast, pack your grapefruit with protein by adding an egg or a yoghurt. However, make sure that you check with your doctor first if you?re taking any regular medications as grapefruit can interfere with some drugs.

3.

Everybody loves eggs, right? These amazing little foods have been shunned in the past for containing a lot of cholesterol, but they are actually a healthy source of various nutrients like Vitamin D, and protein. Studies have shown that the cholesterol in our food actually has less of an impact on our blood cholesterol than experts had previously thought. If you?re mostly eating lean proteins and staying away from too much fatty food, then eggs are a fantastic part of a stellar diet.

4.

Carbohydrates make up a vital part of most breakfasts, however, the type of carbs you choose to consume can have a huge impact on how healthy your meal is. The best rule to keep in mind is that whole-grains and whole-wheat, whether in toast, bread, or English muffins, contain better nutrients and fiber than their white counterparts. It?s important to be careful about what you put on your bread, as well. Covering your toast in jelly and butter just adds empty calories. Instead, try adding some protein with almond butter, or an egg.

5.

 

There?s really nothing better than a banana at breakfast if you want to keep early-morning cravings away. The delicious yellow fruits provide one of the most ideal sources of resistant starch, a carbohydrate that can help you to stay feeling full for longer. You can slice bananas up and add them to your cereal as a way of adding a little extra sweetness to your breakfast.
