Eat healthy breakfast to continue the day has become a fabulous habit. It’s a great way to start my 24 hours off healthfully. The sweet hit from the fruit wakes me up and gives me power to make on the morning. Sugar is more vilified as the evil of all disease, but sweetness is also loaded with fibre, which is great for your stomach system and helps keep you feel 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 fruit in your fridge next to the milk or on the bench next to your cereal pan , or move your coffee maker or tea kettle — about anywhere where you’ll find it. Before you eating the rest of your food , eat your fruit. If you’re not usually a breakfast person.
