New Habits for a New Year

3 Reasons to eat breakfast daily!

1. Breakfast boosts your metabolism and helps you take in fewer calories throughout the day.

2. Breakfast boosts your memory.

3. Eating breakfast helps you maintain healthy blood sugar levels,
and gives you the energy you neeed to tackle your day.

Important: Try to eat within the first 2 hours after waking up.

  • Make it quick! Choose a whole grain cereal and top with 1% milk and a handfull ofyour favorite fresh berries!
  • Don't like traditional "breakfast foods"? Try eating a turkey sandwich on whole grain bread with a slice of 2% cheese.
