The Worst Foods To Start Your Day. Nutritionist Explains

Nutritionist Lovneet Batra has revealed : the top three morning pitfalls foods

HEALTH: Nutritionist Lovneet Batra has revealed the top three morning pitfalls that can adversely impact your health.

In an Instagram post, she cautioned against starting your day with seemingly innocent choices like tea/coffee, fruit juice, and breakfast cereals/energy bars.

Contrary to popular belief, indulging in your favorite chai or coffee, along with common breakfast cereals or energy bars, might be setting the stage for future health concerns, particularly related to diabetes. Batra emphasized the detrimental impact of caffeine, found in tea and coffee, which can spike blood glucose by up to 50%.

Even seemingly healthy options like fruit juices come under scrutiny. Batra explained that the lack of fiber in strained fruit juices hampers gut health, while the sugars, whether added or natural, can disrupt blood sugar levels on an empty stomach.

Additionally, breakfast cereals, often perceived as a wholesome choice, may harbor hidden sugars, preservatives, and flavoring agents. According to Batra, they can surpass the sugar content found in biscuits and cookies.

Instead, Batra recommends adopting a health-centric morning routine:

Hydrate with Warm Water: Kickstart your day by hydrating your body with warm water.

Opt for Soaked Nuts and Seeds: Fuel up with the nutritional goodness of soaked nuts and seeds.

Choose Savory Breakfast Options: Embrace protein and fiber-rich choices like sprouts, eggs, vegetables, or dal cheela.

Consider Porridge with Care: If you prefer porridge, go for steel-cut oats with whole milk (preferably A2).

By incorporating these mindful choices into your morning routine, Batra assures a balanced start to the day. These alternatives not only help regulate hormones and prevent insulin spikes but also keep you satiated for an extended period.
