Focus Your Attention
It’s safe to say the average American falls short of their daily recommended levels of minerals and nutrients (not to mention exercise), but there’s an easy way to make up for the handy snacks and motionless minutes that pad out your workday.
If you start with a well-rounded breakfast in the morning, you can set the stage for healthy eating, calorie control, more activity, and other good habits throughout the day.
Consider how automatic other parts of your morning routine have become; they all add up to get you ready for the day ahead. A wholesome breakfast can give you the pause you need to consider your daily tasks, reset your energy stores, and start off with a calm and positive mindset.
