Your Mama was Right and Studies are Proving it…..

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Statistics tell us that only one in four adults eats breakfast and many people are missing out on its important benefits.

Did you know that eating breakfast improves overall nutrition, the ability to concentrate, and the ability to control weight?

Other studies have reported that those who eat breakfast start their day in a better mood, and have more energy to burn. And still other research shows that eating breakfast on a daily basis is one of the most effective ways to lower bad cholesterol (or maintain an already low level) and to reduce the risk of developing hypertension and type-2 diabetes.

Need I go on? By simply adding breakfast to your morning repetoire you can make a great impact on your well being! Be warned though, not all breakfasts will yield the same results.

To make certain you get all the great benefits from your breakfast make sure it supplies at least one quarter of the calories you need for the entire day and that it includes those ingredients that most nutritionists agree make a nutritious breakfast:

1. At least one serving of fiber
2. At least one fruit and/or vegetable
3. Milk or another source of calcium
4. Protein, i.e., from nuts, meat, cheese or eggs

You can make this habit even easier by adding Young Living’s Balance Complete to your morning routine!
