What should I eat for breakfast?

 This is a question I get often.  "What is the best food to eat for breakfast?".  I understand that it can get super confusing with all the contradicting information out there.  The thing is breakfast, as much as I love it, is a little overrated.  Yep, that's right!  I don't see breakfast as "the most important meal of the day".  I see breakfast as any other meal.  I also don't see why breakfast should be forced on you if you are not hungry.  I try to tell people to follow their hunger cues and eat when they are hungry, and many people just aren't hungry when they wake up.  Then don't eat!  That's my honest and simple response.  It is beneficial to give your body a break from eating occasionally and a fast from dinner to breakfast is kind of a light fast.  If you can hold off even longer without food, that's okay too.  I won't get into the fasting subject as that is a different post altogether but what I’m saying is eat if you are hungry.  If you do decide to eat breakfast, then I do suggest that it be a meal with mostly protein and fat.  The reason for this is that if you start your day with with sugary cereal and high processed carb foods makes blood sugar levels go up, insulin is then produced to carry that sugar in your cells for energy and then you find yourself with low blood sugar again and thee viscous cycle starts again.  The long-term effects of this is insulin resistance which is when your cells stop reacting to the insulin, so your blood sugar always stays high and that can cause many metabolic issues like diabetes and heart disease.  This will also leave you hungry, tired and raging with cravings all day.  On the other hand, starting your day with more protein and fat will keep your blood sugar in check, give your more energy, help you burn more fat and likely help with cravings throughout the day.   I want to explain as well that there are no "breakfast foods".  Food is food, it should not be labelled as such because it adds even more pressure and confusion.  Here are some easy recipes that you can try fr breakfast or any time of the day.
