A healthy breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day. In fact, we are often told to ‘eat breakfast like a king, and dinner like a pauper’. This comes from the understanding that a good breakfast will set you up properly for the day.
A typical Aussie breakfast will be toast with Vegemite, or cereal with milk. For more people, adding an element of protein is forgotten and that’s a problem. Our bodies need protein, especially in the morning, to help keep our blood sugar levels stable, and our appetites at bay until midday. A balanced high protein breakfast will allow you to complete any task set in front of you during the morning, without needing a hit of caffeine or sugar before lunch.
These healthy breakfast ideas that will supercharge your morning productivity.
