I love eggs for breakfast so much that it\u2019s become a running joke among my family and friends\u2014-whenever I go to stay, they know they need to stock up.<\/p>\n
As well as being nutritious, I choose this savory start to the day because it keeps me feeling fuller for longer and helps me avoid the mid-morning energy slump. If I have a sweeter breakfast, I often find that by 10am, I am reaching for a snack.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Don\u2019t get me wrong, there\u2019s still a place in my life for a delicious fresh pastry from time to time, but while it might be a treat for my taste buds, it doesn\u2019t tend to keep my energy levels steady for long.<\/p>\n Latest Videos FromFit&Well<\/p>\n Many sweet breakfasts, such as cereals which are high in refined carbohydrates and added sugar, can cause blood glucose to rise quickly and fall.<\/p>\n However, protein-rich foods like eggs, cottage cheese and Greek yogurt are digested more slowly\u2014providing a more sustained release of energy that could help you resist that mid-morning snack urge.<\/p>\n You may like<\/p>\n That\u2019s why a breakfast that is higher in protein\u2014and includes fiber and healthy fats\u2014helps me feel more satisfied and ready for the day.<\/p>\n Want to give it a try?
