Breakfast - is it really that important?

A Big YES to this one.

Link it back to the last blog and the 5 to 6 small meals which keep your metabolic rate higher throughout the day breakfast is the meal that starts this process. Overnight your digestive system finishes digesting everything from the day before and slows down lowering your metabolic rate. The first meal of the day kicks the digestive system back into action and gives the boost to your metabolic rate. This is key to encouraging your body to burn off more energy (calories).

In addition, the first meal of the day provides the nutrition that boosts all your body's functions thus you will not be as tired, will be able to concentrate better, feel more energised etc..

I eat breakfast everyday but often find it quite difficult and have to make myself eat it.... A good basic cereal is a good choice, quite a lot of breakfast cereals are mainly sugar so stick to the basics, weetabix, shredded wheat, bran flakes etc.....
