If you thought missing breakfast wasn’t a big deal, you could be terribly wrong. Not only does a nutritious breakfast kickstart our body’s metabolism, it also restores glucose levels, an essential carbohydrate needed for the brain to function.
According to Lynette Lee, Kellogg’s Director of Nutrition & Regulatory Affairs, one should always try to have breakfast even if we’re starved for time.
Her go-to breakfast is a bowl of cereal, a typically low-fat and nutrient-dense food with many essential vitamins and minerals as well as dietary fibre.
Plus, cereal also provides the important benefits of grains, usually at less than 200 calories per serving. Just don’t pick a cereal that’s laden with sugar!
