Do you also have the experience of rushing out the door in the morning and rather having a longer sleep than spending time preparing breakfast?  Or maybe you just struggle to eat that early in the morning?

Skipping breakfast can have a negative impact on your body.  This is because your body tries to draw on its reserves for nutrients and water; but these have become depleted overnight.

By not eating breakfast, you are likely to feel tired and hungry later in the day, crave caffeine or sweets as your body desires energy to raise your blood sugar levels.  This destabilises your blood sugar and can affect your weight loss and wellbeing in the long term.

A good breakfast wakes up your metabolism in order to have brain power and energy to function optimally.  Your chances of following a healthy eating plan, with regular meals throughout the day are also increased if you start your day with breakfast.

As much as eating breakfast is important, it is also very important to eat the RIGHT breakfast.  Your breakfast needs to contain key nutrients such as fibre, protein, complex carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals.  Therefore, be wary of the quick piece of white toast or refined cereals, as they give you a quick burst of energy, but leave you hungry again shortly.

Try the Herbalife healthy breakfast:
Have a Herbalife shake for breakfast.  It is quick to prepare and can be enjoyed on the run – even in the car on your way to work!  With less than 850 kilojoules, the shake is low in kilojoules, but does not sacrifice on being healthy and nutritionally balanced.  The Herbalife Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix has been scientifically proven to be an effective means of controlling and managing weight when combined with an active lifestyle.  Complement your healthy breakfast further with Thermojetics Herbal Beverage for extra energy and fat-burning properties.  The Herbal Aloe Concentrate, mixed in with your shake, offers digestive soothing and helps your system function optimally.

In a world of refined sugars and carbohydrate, the harder (yet better) choice to make is towards wholegrain foods.  These foods can reduce your risk of developing high blood pressure (according to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition).  This study was done over an extended period of 18 years, and followed 32 000 subjects.  The results of the study was that those individuals who ate the most whole grains (about 46g per day) were 19% less likely to be diagnosed with hypertension than those who ate least (about 3g per day).

Wholegrain contains potassium and fibre, both important products in the regulation of your blood pressure.  The higher the fibre content of the product, it also makes it lower on the glyceamic index.  Therefore, the food will provide you with more sustainable energy and help keep your blood pressure more stable.

Choose wholegrain foods as far as possible.  The best way to ensure you do this is to re-stock your cupboards with items that is higher in fibre-content, i.e.:
-Check the cereal box to ensure it is wholegrain
-When buying bread, opt for wholegrain and seedbreads
-Purchase wholegrain pasta and couscous
-Brown rice is a better option than white rice

The Herbalife Fibre & Herb tablets and Lipobond tablets offer you additional sources of fibre through supplementing.  Combine your Fibre & Herb tablets with Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix for weight control purposes. 

For those of you already on the Herbalife weight loss program, include a slice of toasted (unbuttered) wholegrain bread to your Herbalife healthy breakfast to meet your fibre needs early in the day.

The Herbalife product range also includes further supplement for heart health, namely the Herbalifeline and Niteworks products.

It is the perfect time to incorporate some new habits into your daily routine that will rev up your metabolism and help you to avoid gaining weight.

Daily diet tips to help rev up your slow metabolism:
-Exercise for 30 min daily.  This helps to minimise weight gain and to raise metabolic rate.
-Tone your muscles through weight training 3 times a week.  Start small: it could be just walking with 500g or 1kg weights.
- Eat enough calories.  Women should not eat fewer than 1200 calories and men not fewer than 1800 calories per day.  Eating too little calories slows your metabolism down.
-Never skip breakfast.  It may slow down your metabolism.  An excellent breakfast can be found in the Herbalife healthy breakfast programme that will set you up with a nutritionally balanced meal, vitamins and minerals and energy for the day.
- Have a supply of protein rich snacks at hand to avoid high carbohydrate junk food.
- Power your metabolism with protein.  The more muscle mass you have, the higher your metabolism and you will burn fat faster.  For this reason, eating enough protein per day is essential to maintain lean body mass and to effectively lose weight.

We eat food as energy (fuel) for our bodies.  The process of burning this energy creates heat.  Nutritional supplements can also help in this way to burn energy efficiently and therefore maintaining optimal metabolism.  The Herbalife Thermojetics range of products (including Thermojetics Herbal Beverage, Thermocomplete and NRG) all have thermojetic agents that can help to effectively burn fat.  It helps you to drink and shrink and to lose centimeters.

To discuss Herbalife products for your daily regime, including the Healthy Breakfast programme or Thermojetics, contact your Herbalife Wellness Coach, Marieta, today.  I can also advise on effective weight loss, weight gain and weight maintenance programmes.

No time for breakfast ….. Let me explain to you the importance of eating a healthy breakfast. Eating your breakfast stimulates the digestive system.  It is really the most important meal of your day. Stimulating the digestive system means it can continue to absorb food and excrete waste as well as giving you a boost of energy.

Skip breakfast means you’ll lack energy and rely more on snacks and caffeine to get you through the day – this could lead to weight gain.

The Herbalife Nutritional Shake is quick to make, easy to digest and nutritionally balanced.  The Herbalife Nutritional shakes are packed with vitamins and minerals, together with soy protein and carbohydrates, and have less than 847 kilojoules per serving.

At Herbalife we know that a strong connection exists between bad breakfast and many health-related problems and difficulty to lose weight.

If you provide your body with insufficient nutrients at breakfast, it has difficulty in managing sugar levels and therefore might leave you feeling starved.  TO solve this, we tend to reach for the carbohydrates that provides fast energy.  But the fast energy has a downfall – once the energy is released and used, it plunges your blood sugar levels low which leaves you feeling hungry and with cravings.

Herbalife offers a healthy breakfast alternative that won’t take more than 3 minutes of your time to prepare and can be enjoyed on the move.
This includes:

• Herbalife Herbal Aloe Beverage to soothe the digestive system

• Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix
