Have you been eating the wrong breakfast all this time? Find out if your toast with jam provides you with enough nutrients for the day
What makes a good breakfast? It should be nutritious and convenient. However, many breakfast foods that are considered healthy can actually be packed with calories or hidden sugars – and leave you feeling unsatisfied. Below are 12 types of breakfast that we have put together. Find out how yours stacks up!
CEREAL
For cereal lovers, be mindful of the type of cereal that you are consuming. There are those that are seemingly healthy but contain a ton of refined sugar and may end up being bad for you. For example, cornflakes look like a healthy choice, but are actually high in sugar. Instead, opt for cereal that is rich in fibre like bran flakes and added raw nuts. Add fresh fruits and raw nuts to increase your fibre and vitamin intake.
YOGHURT
Yoghurt is a tempting “grab and go” breakfast. It provides gut-healthy probiotics and calcium, but on its own, it is not filling enough. Yoghurt usually contains no fibre and flavoured varieties can have a lot of hidden sugar. To improve this option, choose plain yoghurt and add your own fruit. Include a handful of raw nuts to boost protein, fibre and healthy fats that will help you stave off hunger.
WHITE TOAST WITH JAM
White bread is low in fibre and jam is high in sugar, so this breakfast will give you a brief hit of energy. However, you will experience a drop in sugar levels soon after. For a better alternative, swap the white bread for a wholegrain variety and go for scrambled eggs and spinach instead of jam to keep you feeling energised through the morning.
