Of course, the best breakfast for you, depends on your body type !
But here are some healthier
choices:
1. A smoothie can be fast and easy if you're rushed to get out the door. Using some fruits, an unsweetened milk alternative like almond milk, etc (It should say unsweetened on the package!) Add in some protein powder. (check the sweeteners!) Nature's Sunshine has some great protein powders, (email me for more details) if you need the extra protein or for kids. Adding in some greens like kale or spinach is even
better, flooding your body with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
2. Nature's Path makes some low sugar cereals that are better than most. Kamut Krisp contains 5 grams of sugar. Add some berries on top.
3. A slice of
Kamut or Spelt sourdough bread, toasted, is often sugar free, with a little
Raw almond butter, or a little low fat cheese, ideally unpasteurized cheese if
you can get it. Nuts To You and Maranatha make raw almond butter. Read more about why the almond butter should be raw
here. In Montreal, Inewa makes a great sourdough kamut bread, and Ancetre makes low fat unpasteurized cheese.
4. Old fashioned
oats with berries, or with bananas and walnuts, or apples and cinnamon, etc. Soak overnight and cook in a double boiler in the morning while you get ready, super easy!
5. Plain yogurt with fruit, if you need a sweetener try stevia or a little maple syrup.
6. A soft boiled or poached egg. When the yolk is runny, it has a negligible effect on cholesterol. Eggs are perfect for kids, with 6 grams of protein.
8. Home made muffins, with very little sugar, Best Ever Banana Recipe below.
