Breakfast

Breakfast Or Brunch?

Breakfast is often called "the most important meal of the day" — and for good reason, especially when it comes to metabolism and overall health. Here's why breakfast is so important for your metabolism:

🔥 1. Jumpstarts Your Metabolism

Eating breakfast "breaks the fast" after sleeping and signals your body to start converting food into energy. This kickstarts your metabolism, helping your body burn calories more efficiently throughout the day.

🕒 2. Helps Regulate Blood Sugar

After a night without food, your blood sugar levels are low. A balanced breakfast helps stabilize these levels, preventing energy crashes and sugar cravings later in the day — both of which can lead to overeating.

🍽 3. Supports Hormonal Balance

Skipping breakfast can disrupt hormones that regulate appetite, like ghrelin (hunger hormone) and leptin (satiety hormone). A nourishing morning meal helps balance these signals, reducing overeating later.

💪 4. Preserves Lean Muscle

Consistently skipping breakfast can lead to muscle breakdown, especially if your body is lacking fuel. Eating protein in the morning helps preserve muscle mass, which is crucial for maintaining a higher metabolic rate.

🌱 5. Encourages Healthy Eating Patterns

People who eat breakfast tend to make better food choices throughout the day. It reduces the urge for high-sugar, high-fat snacks later on, which supports a more stable metabolism.

What Makes a “Metabolism-Friendly” Breakfast?

A well-balanced breakfast includes:

  • Protein (e.g., eggs, Natural Full fat, Greek yogurt or Kefir, tofu)

  • Healthy fats (e.g., avocado, nuts, seeds, olive oil)

  • Fibre-rich carbs (e.g., oats, whole grain sourdough toast, )

  • Low sugar fruits such as berries and cantaloupe melon

  • Hydration (e.g., water, herbal tea)

The start of the day is the most important time to fuel your body. This fires up the metabolism and gives you all the energy you need for the day ahead.

Due to our busy lifestyles, many of us are in the bad habit of eating very little all day and then eating large amounts at night. This is the worst thing to do and causes all sorts of problems with your metabolism.

Eat the majority of calories before 3pm and this will re-set and normalise your metabolic rate.

Here are some great breakfast or brunch ideas to get your day off to a good start and can have anytime between 6am & 12pm
