A nutritious breakfast is so important for your heart and your mind. It improves your energy levels and ability to concentrate in the short term, and can help with better weight management, reduced risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease in the long term. It also feeds your brain and boosts brain power.

It doesn’t have to be a huge breakfast. A bowl of oatmeal with blueberries, or an egg with whole wheat toast, and fruit, is just what the body needs. I never skip breakfast!
