Breakfast - Nutrition Snippet

Posted 18th June 2008 at 04:44 AM by nandhini_r
Healthy BREAKFAST…healthy you!!!


A healthy breakfast includes a balanced mix of

Ø Proteins
Ø Carbohydrates
Ø Fats
It can increase a person’s metabolism and sustain higher level of energy throughout the day; as this is the first and the most important meal of the day.
Some breakfast items that could be included are:
  • Cereal (wheat flakes/ oats) with milk (ideally cow’s or skimmed)
  • Dry fruits (not more than 2 – 3 – they will help you boost your memory ) and fresh fruits – in a limited quantity of one bowl (150gms) + Milk – 1 Glass (200ml) (This breakfast is packed with potassium, memory – boosting bananas tops this list)
  • Bread Toast – 2 + *Egg – 1 (ideally boiled/ scrambled preferred)
  • Snacks like Pohe, Upma, Sandwiches (with lots of vegetables) – 1 Serving
  • Idli – 2 + Sambar – 1 l OR Dosa – 2 + Chutney – 1 tsp (ideally the powdered chutney would be beneficial)
  • Roti – 1 + Vegetable – 1 l (150gms) OR Curd – 1 l

You can also add in some juice or buttermilk or coconut water along with your breakfast whenever possible

* For eggs please consult the dietician/ doctor before consuming if you have a deranged lipid profile.

Hi Supriya,
You could try having a glass of juice or a fruit to appease this hunger till lunch time.

Thanks
