What do you do when you don’t have time to cook breakfast in the morning? Or you don’t feel like eating at all, and even the common truth that you have to eat breakfast yourself and give dinner to the enemy doesn’t inspire you?!
There are many reasons to skip your morning meal. But the result is the same – instead of preparing and eating a quick and tasty breakfast from simple products, you again leave the house with an empty stomach. Meanwhile, nutritionists-nutritionists categorically declare that breakfast is a must.

Why breakfast is so important

Breakfast prepares your body for the day ahead. What you ate in the morning, such will be the return.
From a cup of coffee with a croissant, you will get an instant boost of energy. But after an hour you will feel hungry – simple carbohydrates quickly saturate with energy, but just as quickly and end their action.

Do not eat anything – even sadder. In the stomach, discomfort and even cramps may occur due to hydrochloric acid, which contains gastric juice.
Acid breaks down food, and if there is nothing to break down, it can damage the walls of the stomach. Lack of food disrupts intestinal motility – this provokes such troubles as bloating, dysbacteriosis and constipation.

The best option is a healthy, proper breakfast according to simple and tasty recipes. Your body will receive proteins, slow carbohydrates, healthy fats – in a word, everything it needs for normal life.

Proper breakfast – what is it

• The morning meal should be nutritious so that the body receives the energy necessary for activity, at least 20-25% of the daily calorie intake.

• Breakfast should be hearty, but not too dense, otherwise, instead of cheerfulness, you can get weakness and lethargy. The recommended amount of food is 300 ml of the main dish and 200 ml of a drink.

• In different versions of quick breakfasts for every day, the following must be present:

  • proteins are the main builders of our cells;

  • slow carbohydrates – energy providers;

  • healthy fats – fuel for the brain, sources of energy, synthesizers of essential acids in the body.

Food should be varied.

1. Comfortable doesn’t mean correct.
   Eating the same thing day after day is very convenient. However, it is important to know that for a long active and healthy life, our body needs a wide variety of nutrients and trace elements.
2. Physiological need for a varied diet.
   The main recommendation of the World Health Organization: “Eat a variety of foods.” A wide variety of foods increases the likelihood that you will get enough of all the nutrients you need. According to a recent study conducted in Finland, children from a monotonous diet increase the risk of developing allergies and asthma.
3. Psychological need for a varied diet.
   In addition to the physiological need for a variety of foods, there is a psychological need. Firstly, with a varied diet, a person does not get tired of eating the same thing. Secondly, the reduction of dietary restrictions leads to a reduction in episodes of uncontrollable overeating.
4. Five main food groups.
   It is important to eat foods from all five major food groups.
   • Meat, fish, poultry, eggs, nuts;
   • Fruit;
   • Vegetables and legumes;
   • Bread, cereals, rice, pasta;
   • Dairy and sour-milk products, cheeses.
