Dr. Ashley, after I eat breakfast, I feel bloated and tired. What should I be eating?”

Breakfast is not the most important meal of the day, but it is the most important meal to get RIGHT.

We sometimes fill this meal with sugary, starchy foods instead of whole, nutrient-dense ones, causing us to feel bloated and tired. 

It is important to start your day with foods that will nourish your body.

Stay away from breakfast foods like:
Corn flakes with milk
Fruit flavored yogurt 
Fruit smoothies
Oatmeal with fruit

These foods will mess with your blood sugar, causing it to be high then low. 

This causes your body to NOT burn fat for fuel.

 The good news is that finding foods to eat that will keep your energy up throughout the day and allow you to burn fat is easier than you think.

Here are 3 breakfast foods I recommend to all of my clients: 

→Eggs, eggs, and MORE EGGS!

You can scramble them, poach them, or make tasty omelets.

→Full fat plain Greek yogurt

Add berries, nuts, or seeds if you like!

→A smoothie….but protein based, not carb loaded. 

Get rid of the fruit juice and frozen mango! Use unsweetened almond or coconut milk, frozen berries, spinach, and a protein source, like a protein powder. 

Shifting your approach to breakfast will not only keep you full  longer, but will also allow your body to focus on burning fat for energy and will help to improve your metabolism.
