According to Dr. Preeti Nagar, a dietitian at Noida International Institute of Medical Sciences College and Hospital, breakfast choices significantly impact nutritional profiles. Sweet breakfasts, which include cereals, pancakes, fruits, and smoothies, are high in carbohydrates and sugars, providing quick energy but lacking in protein and healthy fats, leading to rapid energy drops.
In contrast, savory breakfasts, such as eggs, yogurt with nuts, or whole grain toast with avocado, are richer in protein and healthy fats. This combination helps individuals feel fuller for longer and stabilizes blood sugar levels, often containing more fiber when whole grains or vegetables are included. Dr.
Nagar advises that if health, fitness, and blood sugar control are concerns, choosing a savory breakfast can offer long-term benefits, including better blood sugar management, effective weight management, and improved satiety..
