Most of our clients are very busy people and one of the most common roadblocks they have in getting healthier and fitter is, “I don’t have enough time.” That’s why we bring the gym to you, and also why we’d like to share with you super easy, super healthy breakfast ideas that you can just grab and go!
Breakfast is arguably the most important meal of the day because it “breaks the fast” that we undergo from our time spent sleeping. It kick-starts our metabolism, avoiding the inevitable survival mechanism of “fat storage mode” when the human body is threatened with starvation.
Like our smoothie recipe ideas, Gidon has altered the following to have a low Glycemic Index for more stabilized blood sugar levels when eaten. He’s also tried to choose recipes that have similar ingredients to make shopping easier for you.
