There is a popular saying, ‘eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.” Breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day. Still, a lot of people hardly pay attention to what they are eating for breakfast and how they are having. Having a nutrient rich breakfast can help in improving metabolism and helps us survive the whole day. But there are certain mistakes that most of us make while having breakfast. And these little mistakes can be harmful.
Wanna know what these mistakes are? Here you go!
Skipping Breakfast
There is a common myth among people that skipping meals could help in weight loss, but this is a big NO. It is essential to provide the right amount of nutrients to the body especially in the form of breakfast otherwise it can lead to poor metabolism, poor immunity as well as weakness. Skipping breakfast is a big problem. Whether light or heavy, everyone must have their breakfast every day.
Eating Late
Those who finally agree with the fact that having breakfast is a must tend to have it late, but this is also a mistake. Keeping the stomach for a longer time can also lead to several problems in the body. If some experts are to be believed, breakfast must be eaten within an hour of waking up. And if it is delayed, the person tends to overeat throughout the day.
Not Maintaining A Balance
Since it is the first and most important meal of the day, it is essential to have a breakfast which is a combination of protein, complex carbohydrates as well as healthy fats. It is advisable to have a breakfast loaded with colourful fruits and vegetables. This can provide the right nutrients to the body.
Not Eating Enough Protein
A human body needs a certain amount of protein. Especially when it comes to weight loss, it is essential to consume enough protein. It can provide the right energy to the body and curb unwanted hunger pangs throughout the day. From eggs to paneer to soya, there are so many ingredients that can help!
Just Eating Proteins
A lot of health freaks think that eating protein is enough for breakfast. But not just protein, one must have carbohydrates too. For example, eating just eggs might be able to satisfy your hunger but it won’t help you kick start the day with full energy. Just like protein, carbohydrates are equally essential for the body. Along with eggs, it is essential to have some veggies, or bread slices or maybe a parantha.
So, were you making these mistakes too?? Its time to rectify them!
