Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A recent study
has shown that women who skip breakfast consume an average of
100 calories more than those who eat breakfast. Enjoying a
healthy breakfast in the morning will also keep your blood
sugar levels even, which will help you stay more alert and in a
better mood. 

With our busy lives, it is sometimes hard to find the time to
fix breakfast in the morning. Here are a few quick ideas that
take hardly any time at all to prepare and most of them you can
carry with you and enjoy on your way to work or when you get
there. 

1. Whole grain cereal with skim milk 
All you need is a bowl and a spoon. This should take you about
1 minute to prepare and 5 minutes to eat. A nice and easy
breakfast idea when you are running late. 

2. Breakfast Parfait
You can make your own healthy version of the breakfast parfait.
Put some low-fat vanilla yogurt in a container. Keep some
snack-sized bags of granola in your pantry and some small bags
of frozen berries in your freezer. Or use fresh fruit when
available. Just grab everything as you head out the door and
enjoy your parfait at work. 

3. Whole Wheat Bagel with Peanut Butter (add a piece of fruit)
Toast a whole-wheat bagel with some peanut butter for a filling
breakfast. Grab a piece of “portable” fruit such as an apple or
a banana before you leave the house and breakfast is done. 

4. Boiled Egg Sandwich 
Keep a few boiled eggs in your fridge for a protein rich and
filling egg sandwich for breakfast. Just slice the egg on some
honey wheat bread and sprinkle a little salt on top. If you’d
like you can add a small amount of mayonnaise as well. 

5. Breakfast Smoothie
Breakfast Smoothies were invented for busy people. Pour some
milk or yogurt and juice in your blender and toss in some
berries or a banana and a scoop of protein powder. There are
many other great recipes available. Visit

Try a few of these ideas and you’ll find yourself more alert
and in a better mood in the morning. Starting your day off
right, will also help you snack less during the day and will
keep your metabolism running high. No more excuses to skip
breakfast – just spend a few minutes each morning putting one
of these meals together.

Life Dynamix Comment: We recommend using goat milk and yogurt instead of milk products from a cow. Goat milk products are less inflammatory and better tolerated by the body. Also we recommend using organic peanut butter as well as fruit.
