How to make a healthy morning breakfast?
1. Avocados - Avocados are rich in monounsaturated fats as well as loads of vitamins to boot (E, K and C to mention just a few). Not only that, but they pack a serious fiber punch, 5 grams in just a small half cup! Between the fiber and healthy fat content, you'll have no problem staying full for hours after enjoying some avocado. Makes for a great snack, side with dinner, addition to salads, and of course there's always guacamole!
2. Eggs - Eggs are a great source of fat as well as high quality protein, just make sure you don't skip out on the yolk! Why? The yolk is by far the most nutritious part of the egg, providing over 11 vitamins and minerals including nearly 100% of the daily RDI of energy-boosting B12 from just 3 eggs daily. They are a great breakfast item, but of course they can be enjoyed at any time of day!
3. Coconut oil - Coconut oil is one of the richest sources of perhaps the most beneficial fat known to man, medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). MCTs have been shown to improve brain function, lower cholesterol, improve skin and hair health, and best of all: burn more fat!
Combine all three in an omelete this morning and you'll be well on your way to feeling full and burning fat for the rest of the day!

How should our breakfast be?
Breakfast will kick-start your metabolism and set the course of your day. Most people who skip breakfast have weight related problems. In many countries, you will be served chocolate pastries, Danish pastries and other savory items for breakfast. Too much of these pastries may not be a health choice, but guess what, if you eat them at breakfast, you have the entire day for your body to break it down, with very little chances of it getting stored as fat, considering you have an active day ahead of you and will do some sort of exercise.
I’d like to mention here about the importance of starting your day with fruits. If you go back to the carbohydrate section in the book, fruits are categorized as a “simple” carbohydrate. Which simply means, that a fruit gets digested quickly by the body, providing instant energy to the individual consuming it.
Many of us must have that cup of tea or coffee upon waking up. Nothing wrong with that; the only suggestion being, have your piece of fruit first. Let the instant energy jump start our metabolism, and then have your tea and coffee. Tea or coffee stimulates the brain to wake up, but it suppresses your metabolism. What you want is a complete wake up. A fruit will help you do that, and then if you must, enjoy your cuppa.
