Not Just Breakfast, but Fiber Too!
Taking the time to eat healthy in the morning is something that most Americans don’t do. If you want to eat healthier, then use a breakfast to begin a routine of life long health. As your mother always said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and medical science has proved her right.
If you’re on the go, and need to eat a cereal then its okay to do so, but know what type you need for a healthy breakfast. You might not realize that eating after waking up means that you’re replenishing your body from the previous night’s fast. You’re literally breaking the fast, and you don’t need unhealthy foods shoved into a body that’s already depleted. Besides if you eat a healthy breakfast you’ll maintain your weight and your mental functioning throughout the day will be chipper too. Eating a healthy breakfast just makes common sense, and your body will love you for choosing one.
Many people eat breakfast cereal to start their day off, but most breakfasts of this type are not a healthy breakfast at all. Most grain based cereals don’t have the correct amount of complex carbohydrates that the body needs. Fiber has a lot of these types of carbohydrates, but most cereals on have fine grain in them without the other bulkier substance that makes you healthy. For a healthy breakfast you need over 30 grams of fiber, and it should consist of soluble and insoluble fiber.
By eating something that includes insoluble fiber it eases gastrointestinal problems. Your stomach and bowels will empty easier, and studies have shown that it reduces intestinal and colon cancers. Insoluble fiber works by sucking water into the intestines, and it eases passing stools. Soluble fiber in a healthy breakfast plays an important role too because the stomach contents won’t empty too fast.
