“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”, or so the famous saying goes. With diets such as IF (Intermittent fasting) gaining popularity, an increasing amount of people are missing out on breakfast in the hopes of reducing calories and improving their health. The internet is flooded with contradictory studies and articles that will lead you to believe that breakfast is nonessential, but today I’m going to set the facts straight.
Eating breakfast lays the foundation for your entire day. When you eat and what you eat are vital components that influence your memory, metabolic rate, concentration- , blood sugar- and energy levels. If you’re too rushed in the morning to eat breakfast, take breakfast on the go. If you’re skipping breakfast to lose those few extra kilos, you’re being counterproductive, since studies have shown that people who eat breakfast tend to be thinner than those who don’t.
Once you start introducing breakfast into your daily diet, you’re already one step closer to a healthier you! In order to reap the full benefits of eating breakfast, what you eat should also be taken into consideration. Choosing fibre filled foods that contain nutrients will keep cravings at bay and kick-start your metabolism. Excellent breakfast options to choose from includes; oatmeal, greek yogurt, wheat germ, eggs, bananas, almond butter & our Berry Bomb Smoothie. Unfortunately, eating a well balanced breakfast with all the benefits you crave comes at a cost; time.
As a successful business woman and busy mom of three, I understand the value of time, especially in the mornings. While rushing between packing lunchboxes and searching for missing school shoes, eating a “well balanced breakfast” is the last thing on my mind, and honestly a luxury I can’t
afford, but we need to realise that it is not a luxury but rather an essential. 
Some of the side-effects experienced from not eating breakfast, or eating a quick-grab unhealthy breakfast, are increased cravings, energy slumps, brain fog and zero food restraint. This sets the tone for your day. I am a passionate believer that we can go through the day feeling energised and fantastic rather than lethargic and just “OK”. My “go to” for fantastic breakfast nutrition is the NeoLife Breakfast Pack.
I often have people who sceptically start the breakfast pack but in a very short period of time are amazed at the way they feel.
