They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and although it's not always true, it can determine how well or badly the rest of the day will go. Eating rich is not only a sensory pleasure that helps lift your spirits and regulate the nervous system, but it also promotes performance and overall health.
It all depends on what type of food you eat to break your fast: the ideal would be to introduce proteins, healthy fats and, of course, fibre. The latter is found in fruits, vegetables and whole grains and is responsible for keeping the digestive system working properly. Given the importance of this system (the stomach and intestine are even called the “second brain”), taking care of it is essential first thing in the morning. Here are six ideas for healthy, delicious and fibre-rich breakfasts to do so, satisfy hunger until mealtime and avoid snacking between meals:
