3 fruits for breakfast to stay in shape all day

If it is well balanced, breakfast gives you the energy you need to start the day off on the right foot. And the secret to an effective breakfast lies in the diversity of intake: carbohydrates, proteins and… fresh fruit. Rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber, a well-chosen fruit in the morning can make all the difference and give you the energy you need to last until lunch. You can obviously eat them as is, but you can also mix your fruits in smoothies, add them to your cereals, or even enjoy them on bread with fresh cheese. The important thing is to please yourself and above all to listen to your needs. Here are three fruits perfect to enjoy in the morning.

The banana

If you have trouble waking up in the morning and are looking for a boost of energy, bananas are for you. Rich in carbohydrates and calories, it stimulates the body and satisfies hunger pangs. With its 2.6 g of fiber per 100 g, bananas are easily digested by the body and will keep you going all morning. That’s not all. Bananas contain tryptophan, converted by the body into serotonin, which is none other than the happiness hormone! For a balanced breakfast, combine it with a handful of nuts for an extra boost of protein or a square of dark chocolate for a bit of indulgence.

The apple

The saying goes that “an apple a day keeps the doctor away forever,” and it’s well deserved! With nearly 3% fiber, it helps regulate blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of sugars into the blood, which prevents the glucose peaks responsible for mid-morning fatigue. To take full advantage of its benefits, eat the apple — of organic origin is preferable — raw with the skin, because it is in this that the majority of fibers and antioxidants are concentrated. Bite into it directly, or add it in slices to your yogurt.

The lawyer

Avocado is undeniably the star fruit at breakfast. It is rich in fiber, which promotes digestion, helps regulate blood sugar levels and also increases the feeling of fullness. Thanks to its concentration in monounsaturated fats, it is also beneficial for the heart: these fats help reduce LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) while maintaining healthy levels of HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol). Unlike the first two fruits, it is more difficult to take it with you or simply bite into it, so for a perfect savory breakfast, enjoy it on a slice of wholemeal bread, accompanied by scrambled eggs and a little feta!
