As we all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. According to WebMD, breakfast helps kick-start our metabolism which helps us burn calories throughout the day. And it also gives us the opportunity to fuel our body with nutrients to help us get our day started on the right note.
I know for myself as a college student working part-time that it is hard to eat breakfast, especially a healthy breakfast that can provide me with the vitamins and nutrients my body needs early in the morning. It’s easier and more convenient to get breakfast on the go or not to eat at all in the morning on my way to class or work. Getting breakfast on my way to work or school can be costly, high-fat, and high-sugary too. It’s essential to eat a nutritional breakfast to fuel your body with nutritional choices to start the day correctly.
