What is the perfect breakfast?
I love a good breakfast.
It is important that you start your day off right. Breakfast can be really good for you or it
can really set your diet in the wrong direction. It is important to get the most out of
it. I am going to start off with what
foods that you should avoid. It is
important to know what is in your juices.
It is important to avoid juices that are from sugars not fruits. I have
already blogged about how bagels are loaded with carbs and offer very minimal
benefits to your body. Now what to eat
in the perfect breakfast…
This is the formula.
53% carbs 27% fat and 20% protein.
Carbs: oatmeal or
wheat bread- Make sure that the oatmeal is not loaded with sugars.
Fat: Nut butters
or whole nuts, avocados and olive oils- Avoid butter, bacon and full-fat cheese
these foods digest slowly.
Protein: this can
be achieved with a combination of egg whites, non-fat yogurt and skim milk
So this is my perfect meal… Wheat toast dry (without butter)
with a reduced fat peanut butter spread on it with a side of egg whites and
non-fat yogurts without sugars(this means make sure that the flavoring is
natural.
Everyone says that breakfast is the best meal of the
day. But when you have bacon, eggs,
fried hash browns and white toast with butter and jelly you really loose the
benefit of the meal. This meal would
really slow you down and have little to no benefit to the consumer. I love to wake up and have a healthy
meal. This is how you assure that you
start your day in the right direction.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Interesting facts!
ReplyDeleteThe older I have gotten the more I realize how important your fist meal of the day is. This is great information to know! Although I do love my bacon =)
