When you get up in the morning, your body has been fasting all night and your blood sugar is low. You “break your fast” by eating breakfast. And how you break-fast in the morning will set your metabolism for the day.
If you start off with coffee and donuts or other pastries, sugar-sweetened breakfast cereal or other simple carbohydrates, you do raise your blood sugar level quickly, but it comes at a cost. Your blood sugar goes too high and your pancreas has to secrete high levels of insulin to get this sugar out of your bloodstream. Insulin causes the body to store carbohydrates in the liver and flit cells (causing weight gain).

Once that sugar is gone, your blood sugar is low again and you crave your next high carb and or caffeine fix. All day long your blood sugar goes up and down like a roller coaster, and/or your energy and mood goes up and down with it.

The solution is surprisingly simple. Start the day by eating some high quality fat and protein. Eggs, avocados, organic meats or unsweetened yogurt are all good choices. If you’re in a hurry, take a spoonful of coconut oil and make a protein shake with SynerProTein, Nutri-Burn or some other protein powder.

Protein and fat cause your pancreas to secrete a different hormone called glucagon. Glucagon mobilizes sugar stored in your liver to enter the blood stream. This raises your blood sugar, but it also sets your metabolism to start burning fats instead of storing them. The result, your blood sugar stays more stable throughout the day and so does your energy and mood.

You can also reduce sugar cravings by taking Super Algae and Licorice Root. Take two capsules of each at breakfast, the same again at lunch and again in the middle of the afternoon.

If you also start selecting complex carbohydrates (such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains) instead of simple carbohydrates (foods with refined sugars and grains) your metabolism will adjust in about two weeks. Your cravings for sugar and caffeine will cease and your mood, energy and overall health will be much better. You’ll be amazed at how much better you feel and how much more clearly you’ll be able to think. Try it!
