POWER YOUR DAY

There’s a reason breakfast is called the most important meal of the day! Starting your morning with a powerful breakfast will help you stay nourished for whatever the day may bring. Breakfast doesn’t have to be boring or time intensive. A little forethought and preparation the night before can mean a quick breakfast on-the-go.

Here are a few tips about breakfast:

• Power your day with breakfast. Breakfast is called the most important meal of the day for good reason – it’s important to power up your day by starting it with a nutritious and delicious breakfast, even if you’re pressed for time.
• Breakfast kick-starts your metabolism. Eating breakfast kick-starts your metabolism for the day. Having a nourishing meal at the beginning of the day gets your digestive system working first thing in the morning.
• Breakfast boosts your energy. Breakfast “breaks the fast” and boosts your energy levels and stimulates your brain and body for physical activity.
• Don’t have time to make breakfast? Preparing your breakfast the night before — with overnight oats, homemade granola, or even a plant-packed breakfast burrito — is a simple way to streamline your mornings, while still getting the benefits of breakfast, even if you’re on the go.
• Don’t care for traditional breakfast foods? You don’t have to love oats, pancakes, or eggs to reap the benefits of the first meal of the day. Instead, break your fast with a warm bowl of savory grains with vegetables, a sip-able soup, or even a vegetable-packed “breakfast” pizza.
• Do you tend to sleep in? It doesn’t matter what time you wake, your body still needs fuel to get started. Make it a habit to eat a balanced breakfast within the first hour of waking to jumpstart your metabolism and start your day off right…no matter what time it is.
• Find your own personal breakfast routine. Keep it simple and do what works for you.
