Drinking a cup of coffee on the run does not count as breakfast.

Meanwhile, the right choice of foods for breakfast will determine how much energy you have.

The faster the body gets hungry, the more high-calorie and fatty foods it will require for lunch and dinner.

And it is no less important to have breakfast in the first hour after getting out of bed. But you also need to focus on your own feeling of hunger. You can split your meal into first and second breakfast.

For breakfast, it is recommended to choose balanced dishes. This way you can get an adequate amount of proteins and glucose, which helps to maintain your figure in shape.

Breakfast porridge should be varied every day, choosing from oatmeal, buckwheat or millet.

It is advisable to choose cereals with a low degree of processing, because they retain the maximum amount of vitamins, minerals and fiber. Since sources of fat are also needed, the porridge should be flavored with oil. For example, olive oil contains a lot of high-quality fatty acids.

If you are tired of porridge, a good source of fiber and glucose will be fruits. For example, apples. You need to choose those that contain less fruit acids to avoid stomach problems.

As a protein product, you can take an omelet or cheese. You can also drink a glass of milk or yogurt without additives.

Another option is a slice of whole grain bread or toast, which can be spread with butter and topped with a slice of cheese.

But you shouldn’t eat heavy food for breakfast, because after eating it it will be difficult to move.
And don't be afraid of extra calories. After all, the more nutritious your breakfast is, the more active you will be throughout the day.

This is easy to explain from a scientific point of view: the greatest metabolic activity occurs in the morning hours, and at midday the metabolic curve gradually goes down. And finally, before bedtime, calories are burned the slowest.

Earlier, the doctor told when it is best to drink kefir.
