Do you know that our brain cell can only use glucose as fuel and nothing else?
By promoting stable blood glucose levels, wholegrain promotes optimum brain function, memory recall, and concentration. A cereal breakfast is especially helpful for fueling the brain as it boosts glucose levels at crucial time of the day, after the long overnight fast. Researchers have found that adults who regularly eat a cereal breakfast are less depressed, less emotionally distressed, and have lower stress levels. Important note here, carbohydrates only have a beneficial, alerting effect, on mood if eaten in the morning on waking, and not when you eat them later in the day. We can go on and on on the importance of breakfast, but then the message is only one; do not skip breakfast! And always pick the wholegrain whenever you can for optimum benefits.
