It's in the morning, at breakfast, that your body receives the first necessary nutrients to function and give you the energy you need. 💪
It's for this reason that it's so important not to neglect this meal of the day and to do it consciously. Let's get practical! If you have a balanced and complete breakfast, you'll help your body to:
- Replenish energy levels after overnight fasting;
- Improve your performance, memory, and concentration;
- Enhance your mood;
- Contribute to a more balanced food distribution throughout the day.
For your breakfast to be balanced and complete, it's important to include foods from three main groups/sources: dairy, fruit, cereals, and derivatives. These will be responsible for providing the nutrients you need, namely good quality protein, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Fiber, in particular, is important in this first meal of the day because it plays a fundamental role in the proper functioning of your body and your digestive health. Let's simplify!
4 reasons to include more fiber in your breakfast:
- Helps improve digestion;
- Reduces the absorption of fats, sugars, and cholesterol in the intestine;
- Provides a prolonged feeling of satiety;
- It's low in calories!
Although the daily recommendation for fiber intake is 25g, most of us need to increase fiber intake by about 50% throughout the day to reach that goal.
This is where our Overnight Oats come into play! Made with yogurt, fruit, and oats, these are a great source of fiber, ideal for a practical, healthy, and nutritious breakfast without sacrificing taste, giving you that extra boost. And when we say "just," it's really just: our Oats have no added sugar, dyes, or preservatives.
Made just like at home, they only go through the High-Pressure Process (HPP) to neutralize unwanted organisms and ensure a longer shelf life without any added heat to the process. This allows preserving all the good original nutrients of the ingredients used.
And as if you still needed more reasons to try them, our Overnight Oats were designed in an individual and practical format to eat at home or take in your lunchbox, on those busy days when you don't have time (or excuse 😉)!
Your breakfast will never be the same again.
