We’ve been told countless times that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. How we start our day is very essential. In fact, it’s just as essential as how we go to bed every night. For instance, eating a large meal before bed is not recommended, as it can cause weight gain, heartburn, indigestion, bloating, fatigue, and weird dreams. Thus, eating 3-4 hours before bed is important, and if possible, every night.
One of the best ways to start your mornings is by eating juicy, fresh fruits! Fruits are very cleansing, especially first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach. Eating fruits in the morning improves digestion, cleanses your colon, promotes mental clarity, and boosts your energy levels.
Fruits like watermelons, cantaloupes (melons in general), oranges, apples, bananas, dragon fruit, mangoes, pineapple, and berries are great to start the day. Be sure to eat melons alone (OK to combine with berries) as they digest the fastest, and it’s most optimum for proper food combining, which promotes overall health.
My favorites breakfasts are banana ice cream, fruit salads, smoothie, or mono meals. Check out my recipes page here to access my recipes archive!
