The Best Breakfast Tea For You

Never before in the history of the perfect start to the day has there been such a wealth of inspiration and great little ideas.

From inventive healthy-choice breakfasts that look gorgeous, taste great, can be prepared quickly and easily, or even the night before to old fashioned yoghurts, cereals and porridge which can be jazzed up with fruits and seeds, nuts and confits. From yoghurts and fruit, to cereals and toast; a delicious breakfast can be enjoyed “on the fly” by busy people and busy families!

Why is Breakfast Called Breakfast?

It is a modern word that compounds the medieval expression “to break your fast”. Overnight, as we sleep, we go without food, or fast… when you rise in the morning and eat, you “break” this fast. Hence Break-fast."

Why is Breakfast Important?

Overnight your body has gone without water and energy (food) for around 8 hours. While sleep certainly replenishes you, your body’s metabolism needs a kick start in the morning. So breakfast is your first opportunity to hydrate and energize for the day.

Lots of breakfast foods contain vital nutrients (protein, fibre, calcium, iron and B vitamins) which give you a better focus at work and school. Without breakfast we are more likely to feel starving by mid morning and to reach for a quick high-fat or high-sugar snack which brings with it a quick energy boost followed by a big dip.

Breakfast ensures we balance our systems first thing.
