Start your day off with protein and fat in your
breakfast. This type of meal will cause
only a small rise in your blood sugar which will help prevent hunger and sweet
cravings in the early to middle morning.
The Standard American Diet, or S.A.D. is typically 65%
carbohydrate. An example of a S.A.D.
breakfast would be a bowl of cereal, slice of toast and orange juice. This meal would produce a spike in blood
sugar followed by a crash in 90-120 minutes (1 ½ to 2 hours) that results in
food cravings and increased hunger. A
good way to start your day? Try a 2 egg
omelet with cheese, onion, green pepper and mushroom. This meal will typically have around 30%
carbohydrates which will result in more even energy throughout the day!
