best breakfast for weight loss

Pour out the orange juice, ditch the danish, and toss the toast. The world's best breakfast for weight loss and energy is right here!

What would happen to our world if we all started eating better in the morning?

We'd all be a bit happier, more productive, and a hell of a lot more energetic!

That's why we created the world’s best breakfast for weight loss and increasing your overall health.

We’ll show you four fast, affordable, and convenient breakfast recipes to boost your metabolism and energy.

Want to know the BIG breakfast secret?

The best breakfast for weight loss and feeling energized is all about creating one thing: the optimal chemical environment inside your brain.

That's right — breakfast is all about your brain.

Your brain functions by using tiny chemicals called neurotransmitters.

Your body’s most important neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, acetylcholine) enable you to store new information, recall memories, regulate hunger/food cravings, and even maintain motivation to stick to healthy eating.

Your brain’s key neurotransmitters are influenced by the specific foods you consume first thing in the morning.

Therefore, the best breakfast incorporates a food combination that balances your brain's precious neurotransmitters.

The World's Best Breakfast For Weight Loss and Energy

Just to recap, the world's best breakfast for weight loss and energy:

  • Creates a slow, steady rise in blood sugar for elevated morning energy.
  • Includes healthy, brain-smart fats to stabilize blood sugar for greater stamina.
  • Increases dopamine and acetylcholine — the brain’s two key “focus chemicals.”
  • Incorporates the best fat-burning foods to help you lose weight — the delicious way.

Best of all? This breakfast is incredibly simple to prepare. In fact, there are only three steps to follow.

Step 1: Start With Free-Range Eggs, Healthy Meat, or High-Quality Protein Powder

Free-range eggs and organic meats (or plant-based proteins) are the absolute best things you can eat first thing in the morning.

No, eggs are not bad for your cholesterol. If you have fallen victim to this famously bad nutrition myth before, read this article.

Free-range eggs, organic meat, and complete plant protein powders contain every amino acid to build your brain's precious neurotransmitters.

Plus, the morning protein will help stabilize your blood sugar, which is very key!

Both eggs and meat, in particular, contain high levels of both tyrosine and phenylalanine — two key amino acids that are precursors to dopamine (focus-enhancement) and norepinephrine (energy/fat-burning).

The bottom line: Prioritize protein in the morning for the key amino acids.

Bonus — if you really want to feel like a superhero, add in one or two high-quality free-range eggs.

And just to drive the point home, here's exactly what NOT to do for breakfast:

America’s favorite breakfast foods (bread, juice, cereal, milk, fruit, and pastries) are full of high glycemic, energy-crashing carbohydrates, which lead to wildly fluctuating blood sugar levels.

Even “so-called healthy” foods like whole grain cereals, wheat toast, and granola create the same blood sugar problems.

As your blood sugar level skyrockets, you’ll feel an energy buzz for an hour or so.

Your body will compensate by releasing massive amounts of insulin, and, an hour or so later, you'll experience impending fatigue, brain fog, and decreased productivity.

Not good.

To avoid this blood sugar “roller-coaster,” we need to prioritize a slower burning fuel — like the quality proteins and healthy fats found in eggs, organic meat, and complete plant proteins.

We need quality protein!

Step 2: Add In Some Nuts For Healthy Fats To Further Increase Stamina and Energy

To complete the world's best breakfast for weight loss, we'll add in a handful (around 1/4 cup) of healthy nuts.

The healthy fats in nuts work synergistically with the quality proteins in our breakfast to increase stamina and further stabilize blood sugar.

These are a must-have for breakfast.

With nuts and seeds, watching the portion size is extremely important.

Measure out 1/4 cup, and stick to that amount. Nuts and seeds are extremely healthy for you — in the proper portion.

In terms of which nuts/seeds to eat, the best choices are almonds, cashews, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and macadamia nuts, preferably organic.

Allergic to nuts?

Opt for some low-glycemic/low-fructose fruits instead:

  • Avocado (yes, technically, they're a fruit, not a veggie)
  • Grapefruit
  • Blueberries*
  • Blackberries*
  • Raspberries*
  • Strawberries*

*Always buy organic — these fruits are very high in pesticides when grown conventionally.

Step 3: Drink Organic Green Tea, Quality Black Coffee, and Water

Many people make the huge breakfast mistake of consuming way too much sugar in the morning, particularly through milk, fruit juices, and smoothies.

The best breakfast for weight loss and energy avoids this sugar trap.

If you want to lose weight and have high energy levels, you must avoid these drinks in the morning.

YES, that means you should avoid the “natural” smoothies and fresh-pressed juices made primarily from fruit.

If you must juice, here's what you need to know about juicing and how to do it properly.

But really, you should stick strictly to high-quality black coffee, organic green tea, and good ol' water.

My personal favorite is Numi's Gunpowder Organic Green Tea.

Organic Green Tea contains not only powerful anti-oxidants to increase overall health, but also contains mood-enhancing compounds like L-theanine to further boost well-being.
