Breakfast. We're told it's the most important meal of the day, but it's often the meal we're willing to miss.
Breakfast is in fact very important. It is the first food our bodies have had in 8 hours, and studies have found that people who eat breakfast are less likely to be obese or have diabetes.
But can you eat anything in the morning and call it breakfast?
Reader's Digest has compiled a list of 27 ideas for eating a healthy breakfast that will be beneficial to your health and could set the tone for what you eat the rest of the day.
Included in the list are suggestions for portion control, as well as ideas for foods that help you make the most of your meal.
Fruit smoothies, organic eggs, flaxseeds, and homemade granola made the list. One idea suggests eating lunch for breakfast.
Missing from the list? Doughnuts and oversized muffins.
To start making your breakfast work for you, grab an apple and a glass of non-fat milk and read the list
