How can mental and physical performance be improved and at the same time control weight? A smoothie with pure dried Acai berries first thing in the morning! Well, after a shower of course. Many people skip breakfast and that is not good news. Having a good breakfast is one of the simplest ways to improve overall health.

Heard on the grape vine that people that skip breakfast are often heavier than those that don’t skip breakfast? Recent research has shown that people who consume breakfast are leaner and maintain their weight better compared to breakfast skippers. If breakfast is not consumed in the morning, metabolism slows down so as to conserve the little energy that is left from the overnight fast, which causes the body to want to store anything that is consumed throughout the day.

By having a balanced and complete breakfast containing the acai berry, metabolism can be kick started. Not only will metabolism become more efficient during the day, but it will prevent feeling too hungry and making less healthy food choices at the next meal. It will also provide energy to function, to enable getting more out of the day and feeling great!

In addition, by skipping breakfast, delayed grazing and cravings peak in the afternoon, which can lead to poor nutrition choices. Breakfast skippers also miss out on vitamins and minerals that they would have consumed in their breakfast meal with acai and do not make it up later in the day. Lack of breakfast leads to poor memory, concentration, ability to do work and much more.

So if skipping breakfast is a regular activity, or not eating complete and nutritious breakfast, energy and concentration is not at their peak during the day. Try an acai berry smoothie or a scoop of pure dried acai with yoghurt and/or cereal. If time is extra short in the mornings just throw a few scoops in a tub of yoghurt and mix it up. One serving will provide all the nutritious value of fibre, antioxidants, carbohydrates, and healthy unsaturated fats plus vitamins and minerals to help your body function.

An Acai berry breakfast provides proper nutrition and the energy needed in a busy lifestyle!
