The report is due in two hours. Or perhaps you’ve in the middle of a mid-term. Or you’re making sales calls. Suddenly, bam! Around 10:30 a.m. you hit a wall. All you want to do is look out the window.

Hmmm..what did you eat for breakfast?

I hate to say, “I told you so,” so I’ll turn to Mom, who has said it countless times. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It’s the meal that’s designed to supply a third of the macro and micro nutrients your body needs to run without a hitch.

So what are you eating each morning to do all these things? A cup of coffee gulped down on the go? A cup of sugary yogurt and a muffin eaten at your desk? Nothing at all?

Your body deserves so much better that that. And so do you!

When you eat a good breakfast, your day goes smoothly. No growling stomachs, low blood sugar shakiness, or wandering attention to keep you from nailing those big goals you’ve make for yourself.

What Breakfast is Right for you?

One of the best – and most fun – ways to find out which foods serve YOU most powerfully is something called the Breakfast Experiment. For one week, eat a different breakfast each day. Record in a notebook what you ate, how you felt immediately after the meal, and how you felt again two hours later.

** Day one: Scrambled eggs or tofu
** Day two: Quinoa and spinach
** Day three: Oatmeal with fresh fruit
** Day four: Boxed fiber breakfast cereal
** Day five: Muffin/bagel and coffee
** Day six: Fresh fruit and Greek Yogurt
** Day seven: Fresh Vegetables and Avocado Toast

Feel free to repeat the experiment for another seven days with different foods each morning. Which breakfasts made you feel energized? Which ones didn’t? After the experiment, try adding in more of the foods that make you feel great!
