5. Juices in bags
In foreign films and TV shows, beautiful slim women and tanned muscular men start their day with a glass of juice. Many Russians also decided to adopt the habit of their favorite movie heroes.
Unfortunately, many can only dream of freshly squeezed juice, so juices from boxes are used. They can hardly be called useful.
Most juices are produced by recovery. Water, sugar, citric acid, preservatives, pectin or beet meal are added to the dry mass.
Even if you have the opportunity to drink freshly squeezed juices for breakfast, leave this venture. This product should not be consumed on an empty stomach. It has organic acids that irritate the gastric mucosa.
4. Sandwiches with sausage
The most popular breakfast. White bread with butter and sausage is nothing but “fast” carbohydrates and unhealthy fats. After such a breakfast, hunger will visit you again soon. In addition, the quality of many sausages is not even worth talking about.
Nutritionists generally recommend giving up sausages. If you like to have a sandwich for breakfast, you can leave this tradition, just replace its components.
Instead of white bread, choose whole grain, instead of sausage - boiled or baked meat. Be sure to add fresh vegetables and lettuce. This breakfast will be delicious, nutritious and healthy.
3. Ready breakfasts
It seems that it could be better than a cooked breakfast, especially for children? Poured milk and done. No need to stand by the stove. In addition, manufacturers promise us that they are very useful.

If you offer your child “stars” or “balls” every day for breakfast, he will soon have health problems, metabolic disorders, and excess weight.
2. Confectionery products of industrial production
Another common breakfast option is tea or coffee with cookies. Advertising promises that cookies are no longer the same as before. Now they contain vitamins and minerals, cereals and nuts.
Nutritionists call this breakfast the most harmful. Again, “fast” carbohydrates, fats, sugar. If you monitor your health, generally abandon confectionery products of industrial production. There is no use from her.
Even if you manage to satisfy the feeling of hunger, then after a short period of time you will again want to eat. Also purchased cookies and croissants and other goodies are very high in calories.
1. Muesli and instant cereals
Most people are sure that there will be no harm from porridge. And pour “quick” oatmeal with various additives in boiling water. It will not benefit your body.
The right breakfast is porridge that needs to be boiled. In the production of instant cereals, cereals are processed. It loses most of the nutrients and becomes easily digestible. They also add a large amount of sugar, flavorings, colorings and preservatives.
The same can be said of muesli. It’s better not to eat these foods at all. Cook regular oatmeal, add berries or fruits. Such a breakfast would be very healthy and delicious.
