Nutritionist Elena Solomatina told why sweet breakfasts containing a lot of sugar are harmful. During the day, a person may experience excessive sleepiness.
Breakfast is considered the main meal time, because in the morning we should get a charge of vivacity for the whole day with it. But if your breakfast includes, for example, sweet corn flakes, and then also a roll with jam over tea with sugar, then you will get too much sugar. As a result, during the day you will experience a powerful surge of drowsiness, when, after a sharp jump up, the level of sugar begins to decline.
Ice cream in the morning can make a person smarter
In an interview with Gazeta.Ru, Elena Solomatina said that, indeed, in the first hours after eating such a breakfast, a person experiences a surge of energy, but after a decrease in blood glucose, a breakdown appears. And along with it, weakness, impaired concentration, confusion and a sharp decrease in working capacity occur. During the day, a person wants to lie down and sleep instead of working.
A sweet breakfast will help you lose weight after a diet
The thing is that breakfast should include slow carbohydrates, which will be digested and broken down very smoothly. For example, whole grain cereals or bran bread. Also, breakfast foods should have a sufficient amount of protein, since it slows down the release of glucose into the bloodstream and prolongs the very feeling of cheerfulness that we need as much as possible.
