What do you eat for breakfast?

I rotate my breakfasts if I am having it. 2 days a week I fast so I don't eat breakfast.

Did you know cereals contain sugar and are down right unhealthy.

Here are some of the reasons why people are ditching the cereals (according to research) and some ideas for quick clean breakfasts on the go.

With the UK’s increasingly busy lifestyles people prefer a quick fix meal “According to a study for The New York Times, millennials are skipping cereal at breakfast… it’s the simple reason that it’s far too much effort for them.” Says Shortlist magazine. “… preferring instead to buy locally made granola, protein bars and hot cereals like congee and oatmeal on the go.”
People are having fewer children, the average family now having 2 children. This means fewer mouths to feed and more time to make different breakfasts.
We (as a nation) are becoming more health conscious. For years we were lead to believe sugary cereals were healthy because of their low fat content. But now evidence is showing that it is healthier to include foods high in good fats like eggs. People are NOW encouraged to reduce the sugar in their diets.
There is a lot more choice than there used to be. We can grab all kinds of breakfasts now instead of being limited to thinking it is only toast and cereal!

Cereals have now started to be promoted as “all day snacks” to help push sales and get out of their slump.

Examples of sugar content in well known cereal brands:

-Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut Sugar per bowl (30g serving): 11g

-Kellogg’s Coco Pops Sugar per bowl (30g serving): 10.5g

– Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut Honey & Nut Clusters (7.8g)
– Weetabix Weetos Chocolatey (7.2g)
– Alpen Original Muesli (6.9g)
– Nestlé Cheerios (6.2g)
– Kellogg’s All-Bran Bran Flakes (6g)
– Dorset Cereals Simply Delicious Muesli (5.1g)
– Kelloggs Special K (5.1g)
– Nestlé Shreddies (4.5g)
– Kellogg’s Rice Krispies (3g)
– Kellogg’s Cornflakes (2.4g)
As taken from the Telegraph

Children’s breakfast cereals can contain as much as three teaspoons of sugar – the equivalent of two and a half chocolate biscuits.

So it’s simple… it is finally getting through that sugar is the baddy, people’s lifestyles have changed and people want to take CONTROL of their health.

The best bet is to prep the night before if you are on the go.

TIP- Good fats keep you fuller for longer so avocados are great for breakfast! I love omelettes, frittatas, soup (yes soup), home made muesli, smoothies, eggs, bacon, asparagus. All of these keep me full until lunch time.

As always I would love to know your thoughts

Have a good weekend Paula xx
