Never Skip Breakfast

Live is so hectic these days that I'm sure many people, just like I used to be, skip breakfast. Or their breakfast is a cup of coffee and a donut, maybe a slice of toast, which doesn't provide enough nutrients for the body to tackle the tasks that lies ahead.

Like many others, I would rather spend a few more minutes in bed than got up a bid early to have something in my stomach. I would go all the way until noon time to have a bite to eat. Didn't feel much different when I was younger. But by the time I was in the mid 30s, I started to feel the effect. By about 11 in the morning, I start feeling a little dizzy, and by noon, my feet would start shaking. One day I came across an article somewhere reporting the most important meal of the day is breakfast.

I follow the rule. With a family of 4, I'm responsible for their well being too. So I make sure every body has a nice, nutritious breakfast every morning.

Quick and easy but nutritious breakfast in less than 5 minutes:
In a blender:
1 cup of low fat or skim milk
1 hard boiled egg
1 medium apple, cut up into small pieces
1 scoop of protein powder
2 tablets of vitamin B complex
2 tablets of vitamin C
2 tablets of calcium & magnesium
1 tablet of vitamin E
Blend everything for about 3 minutes, done! Everything our bodies need.

If you prefer a smoothier, creamer, fuller treat, add a banana, some strawberries. Or if you like the nutty taste, add some roasted walnut, peanut, almond, pecan, or any kind of nut your heart desire.

As for the vitamin and minerals, I use Nutrilite brand. Since they are natural, it doesn't taste like medicine. I have tried using other brands, they all have a slight medicine taste.
