For a healthy breakfast, blend up a thick and creamy smoothie bowl with the flavors of sweet peach pie.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. We’ve all heard or read this, right? Have you ever wondered why?
According to Rush University Medical Center, the benefits of starting your day with breakfast include:
- Having a lower BMI
- Consuming less fat through the day
- Meeting recommendations for fruit and vegetable consumption
- Having higher daily calcium intake
- Having higher daily fiber intake
- Having better performance (memory and attention) (for school-aged children)
All of the benefits of a healthy breakfast and yet we still skip out on the eating in the A.M.
There’s a common misconception that to lose weight, skipping a meal (which is often breakfast) means fewer calories which leads to weight loss. However, when you skip out of breakfast your body gets the message you need to conserve energy instead of burning it, and you start to store calories. And, after skipping breakfast, a few hours into the morning you’re not feeling so great. Low energy and sluggishness hits and you need a quick pick me up.
Starting the day with a bowl of fruit and veggies gives your body the best kickstart possible. With easily digestible natural ingredients smoothie bowls can provide us with the vitamins and nutrients our bodies need to thrive and if that breakfast tastes like dessert, why would you want to skip it.
This smoothie bowl is made with a mixture of sweet peaches and banana, seasoning for a peach pie flavor and garnished with the crunch of granola, fresh ripe peaches and a little more cinnamon.
