What’s For
Breakfast? Nutritious and Delicious
The Typical American Breakfast is one of the worst meals of
the day nutritionally speaking. It’s
often full of saturated fat (the unhealthy kind), dairy and processed
foods. Here is an easy fix for a family
ready to turn around their health:
Buy a Nutri-Bullet or Vita-Mixer
This is what I ate for breakfast and here are some of the unbelievable
health benefits:
Full of anti-oxidants that attack free radicals that are
associated with cancer and accelerated aging.
Power packed
with Omegas that are heart and brain healthy and often difficult to get in an
Average American Diet.
The much touted nutritional benefits of raw
cacao (chocolate without added sugar) include theobromine, a mild,
non-addictive stimulant that some believe can treat mild depression. It causes
the brain to produce more of a neurotransmitter called anandamide increasing
the euphoric sensation some feel when indulging in chocolate. It also releases
endorphins, serotonin, phenylethylamine to benefit your mood, focus and ability
to pay attention. It also enhancing
metabolism, eases PMS and improves mood and brain function.
Organic Chia Seeds are naturally non-gluten
seeds packed with Omega-3’s, protein, antioxidants and fiber.
Acai Berries- have more antioxidants than
pomegranate or blueberries and contains heart healthy Omega Fatty Acids. Each 8
oz serving contains 1,470 mg Omega EFA’s
3, 6 and 9.
