Some like it in English, and frying Bacon and sausages. And in Asian countries there are in the morning, often warm rice dishes.

The preferences and habits at Breakfast are virtually endless. But from a nutritional medical point of view, the different variants are not similar to healthy.

Basically the same as for all main meals is for the Breakfast: It should ideally be healthy and balanced.

This is also the time plays a role: Astrid Donalies of the German society for nutrition (DGE) recommends to eat in the first two hours after getting something to drink.

“This is an early piece of muffle,” she says.

Breakfast is the energy storage to populate

The purpose of the Breakfast is the expert, however, the energy storage of the body to replenish. “This is particularly important for children and adolescents.”

With a view to young people as well as diabetics, Pregnant and lactating women nutrition physician and diabetologist Matthias Riedl shares this view.

For all the other food in the Morning was, however, not a Must. You could also drink only unsweetened tea or coffee and of course water, he says.

the danger, however, is: “those Who don’t eat Breakfast rich, snackt in the morning, normally more,” added Riedl.

But how does a good Breakfast look like? According to the DGE-expert Astrid Donalies, it is ideally made up of four building blocks:

  • drinks: water, tea, or coffee.
  • cereals in Form of bread, cereal, or cereal flakes.
  • vegetables and fruits, for example apples, berries or banana, and tomato, cucumber, peppers, or crispy lettuce leaves.
  • milk or low-fat dairy products, such as yoghurt, Quark or cheese.
  • For diet doctors Riedl it may still be less carbs. He recommends especially protein, best vegetable, as it is included in, for example, nuts and oatmeal.

    More cheese and less bread

    But also dairy products must come from his point of view, in the Morning on the table. Who eats bread, choose a whole-grain product.

    “You don’t need to be relatively low in carbohydrates, if you are physically active,” says Riedl. What follows, is likely to many features: “You can make the bread in a quiet thin, and the protein-containing pad is thicker. So, a little more cheese to take.”

    in The case of sugar, it should be a day between 25 and 50 grams. “The are reached quickly.”

    Toast with jam or nut-Nougat-cream and Ready-to-eat Breakfast cereals and fruit yogurts are for Riedl, therefore, No-go on the Breakfast table.

    another food you should eat, however, whenever it comes, so Riedl: “nuts have a multiple effect.”

    The protein-‘m sick and tired of the fat delayed the digestion, and the fiber ensured that the saturation of owning up to the lunch.

    Also, the often to the Breakfast offered Porridge, a cereal porridge can you eat in good conscience.

    The Bacon and the sausages you can fall in two Traps at the same time: To both of which is very high in fat, so that you can quickly reach the recommended daily amount of energy.

    on The other, is exceeded Donalies, according to the recommended Weekly total of 300 up to a maximum of 600 grams of meat and meat products quickly.

    Breakfast is important for children

    what is Crucial is not only what comes on the table, but also that something on the table.

    “Just for kids is a Breakfast culture in the family is important,” says Donalies. Children who have Breakfast in the morning have a lower risk of Obesity, and can concentrate better in school.
