Eat best breakfast to start the day had become a good habit. It’s a fabolous way to start my 24 hours off healthfully. The sweet hit from the fruit wakes me up and gives me power to take on the morning. The sweetness is often vilified as the evil of all disease, but fruit is also loaded with fibre, which is best for your stomach system and helps keep you feeling full longer, and less likely grab a snack out of the street food before lunchtime.

Making fruit a morning habit is simple . Simply put the sweetness in your fridge next to the milk or on the bench next to your grain bowl , or beside your coffee maker or tea kettle — somewhere where you’ll see it. Before you eating the rest of your food , eat your fruit. If you’re not normally a breakfast person.
