To eat breakfast or not to eat breakfast? this is NOT the question!
The real question is: WHAT to eat for breakfast?
The answer is: it depends!
What each of us needs for breakfast will vary according to what we are doing during that particular day and if we have any goals we want to achieve.
For me, during winter, the ultimate brekkie looks like the one on the picture, especially when I am off to work in the pharmacy. It’s filling, loaded with nutrients, low in carbs (works best for me), high in protein, fibre and good fats, and there is something special for my gut microbiome.
This brekkie will keep me going for many hours before I start thinking about food again. This is handy when I work in a busy dispensary.
Even though it looks big, this breakfast won’t give me food coma, because it’s low in sugar, so it won’t touch my insulin levels much, if at all.
Do I eat like this every morning? No!
I have lazy (or super busy) mornings where all I have is a protein smoothie or some granola with yogurt, and that’s okay. But I know that after these small brekkies I will be hungry in a couple of hours and I have to prep my lunch and snacks accordingly.
Knowing how food affects your body and tuning in to observe each feelings can be super empowering.
