THREE HEALTHY BREAKFAST IDEAS Its easy to eat right in the morning: the ideal breakfast should provide one quarter to one third of your days protein, a fair amount of fiber (as low-glycemic carbohydrates) and some healthy fat. Here are some quick, healthful ideas 1. The traditional Japanese breakfast features broiled fish, steamed rice, pickled vegetables and green tea. Using canned, wild Alaskan salmon along with leftover rice and vegetables makes this a quick meal. 2. Granola thats low in sugar or other sweeteners with full-fat Greek yogurt, fruit and walnuts. 3. Keep some hardboiled eggs (choose free-range, omega-3 fortified eggs) on hand to eat with sprouted grain toast. Include a piece of fruit like an orange or grapefruit and a container of plain, unsweetened yogurt. And dont shy away from coffee with your breakfast - it is a good source of antioxidants, and research has linked coffee to a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes as well as improved mental health as you age. If coffee causes side effects such as anxiety, tremors or irritation of the digestive system, drink tea - it is a very healthy alternative.
