the importance of breakfast
jump start your day the right way!
never, ever miss your breakfast. it’s truly the most important meal of the day. after waking from an 8 hour fast, your body needs to be fueled immediately in order to perk you up and keep your blood sugar levels regular throughout the day (a good breakfast will help curve less healthy food cravings as well).
best foods to jump start your day:
bananas
bananas are the perfect on the go fruit, simple, sweet and they come in their own wrapper. additionally, the potassium in bananas can lower blood pressure, a great side effect to have before heading into a difficult morning meeting.
strawberries
strawberries are high in vitamin C, folic acid and fiber. vitamin C is known to ward off illness, making strawberries a good choice when your coworkers are coughing.
blueberries
berries have been shown to have a number of positive effects on the body including improved memory and metabolism.
almond butter
almond butter is a great source of protein. similar to peanut butter, almond butter contains less saturated fats. almond butter pairs nicely with bananas for a perfect mid-morning snack.
organic green juices
organic green juices are loaded with vital nutrients that will keep you going strong. have one with your lunch as well to give you that extra zip and stamina all through the day!
