While it's not easy to pack a quick breakfast for a busy day, eating even a simple breakfast can help maintain your health. Learn about the positive effects of breakfast and some great foods to eat in the morning.

 

◇Eating breakfast helps you store energy and prevents overeating.

Breakfast stores energy for the day. Skipping breakfast deprives the body of the nutrients and energy it needs to start the day. Specifically, the brain, which relies on glucose as its primary energy source, cannot function properly. The brain requires hundreds of billions of neurons, requiring a correspondingly large amount of energy. For these neurons and neurotransmitters to function properly, the body needs an abundance of glucose and protein.

 

Eating breakfast helps prevent overeating and binge eating, which can help prevent obesity. Skipping breakfast after dinner the night before and then eating lunch or dinner right away can easily lead to overeating. This is because appetite-stimulating hormones continue to build up from the morning. Eating while these hormones are still being secreted increases the pleasure of eating itself. This process, when repeated, can lead to stress, making it easier to reach for food, leading to repeated overeating and an increased risk of obesity.

 

◇Good foods to eat in the morning

 

▶Tomato= Antioxidants like lycopene, beta-carotene, and lutein found in tomatoes have a blood pressure-lowering effect. Since blood pressure typically rises upon waking, eating tomatoes in the morning can help manage blood pressure levels. They also contain digestive properties, making them ideal after a meal. However, tomatoes can lower blood pressure and cool the body, so those with weaker constitutions, such as the elderly or those with low blood pressure, should avoid eating them raw and cook them before eating.

 

▶Yogurt= Yogurt is rich in prostaglandin E2, which helps alleviate ulcers and protects the stomach lining from harmful substances absorbed into the body through smoking and drinking. Eating yogurt at night can stimulate stomach activity throughout the night, disrupting sleep. Therefore, it's best to eat it in the morning.

 

▶Honey= Eating honey in the morning provides energy and helps relieve fatigue. Honey, a monosaccharide composed of over 80% sugar, is quickly absorbed by the body and converted into energy. It also promotes bowel movements, relieving constipation. If you find it difficult to consume honey on its own, try mixing it with tea or milk. However, moderation is crucial. Excessive honey consumption can lead to excessive blood sugar levels, obesity, and dyslipidemia.

 

▶Carrot= Juicing carrots and eating them in the morning is a great way to boost your energy. Carrots are rich in vitamins, fiber, and beta-carotene, which helps maintain eye health and vision. Beta-carotene is abundant in the skin, and its absorption rate is increased when the skin is fried, so it's recommended to fry the carrots in oil and consume them with the skin on.
