Your morning meal

Individuals who eat a breakfast high in protein feel fuller. And feeling full from breakfast lasts longer compared to lunch and dinner.*

Breakfast has always been touted as THE important meal of the day and now what you eat at the meal can make even a bigger difference in what you eat all the day long.


You need a steady supply of protein throughout the day. We should be getting at least 50 grams a day.

Jackie Newgent, R.D. says "protein is especially important in the morning because it's metabolized at a consistent rate keeping you feeling energized and satisfied longer than if you'd eaten just carbs or fat."

Great sources of breakfast proteins
