I am Dr Patrick Flanagan, and this is the latest edition of my
Dr Health Secrets newsletter.
I am a scientist with over 300 inventions related to health,
longevity and medicine. This newsletter installment is about the
importance of eating breakfast and its effects on your body.
Breaking the Fast
After fasting all night long, nurture your body with some good
high quality food. Get your body purring with a nourishing meal.
After six to eight hours of rest, the fuel light is on and the
engine is begging to be re-fueled, not only with food, but with
water. Hydration is vital after a night of sleep to keep the
body and organs functioning properly.
It is vastly better to choose healthy organic food, but no
matter what your choices are, eating breakfast energizes the
body and mind, and carries you more efficiently throughout your
day. Some people think skipping breakfast will aid them to lose
weight, but it is actually the opposite, eating breakfast helps
you lose weight, especially when choosing the appropriate foods.
Plus it gives you a positive attitude, heightens mental
concentration, and helps you perform better all day long.
Make it Yummy
With so many delicious options to choose from, why not make your
breakfast a fun sensory feast? Treat your taste buds to natural
naked foods like fruits in season - a wonderful way to get the
day rolling. Optimally, a well-rounded breakfast includes food
from three different food groups. Create your meal from a choice
of whole grain breads or cereals, fruits, proteins, milk or
yogurt, and fats. Protein rich foods are an excellent choice in
the morning as they help to steady blood sugar highs and lows
that can leave you feeling dragged-down and starving by 10 am.
Heart healthy fats (containing essential fatty acids) like
olive, flax and peanut oils, are important to keep as a staple
of your diet.
But dont ignore the importance of water, a vital part of
breakfast is drinking fluids, as hydrating the body after a long
night of sleep is necessary.
Thoreau Knows Best
Henry David Thoreau said, Water is the only drink of the wise
man. He knew the secret to good health, energy, vitality; a
properly hydrated body even heightens mental awareness and
spiritual consciousness. Water is life. The fact that our bodies
are made up of about 70% water alone speaks of our organic
connection to the source and our need to consistently replenish
that very source.
Water is vital to many body functions:
1. It keeps the body temperature regulated.
2. Water dissolves nutrients, then transports them, making them
available to the whole body
3. Water removes waste and toxins from the system
4. Prevents fatigue, dizziness, hunger, dry skin, dark urine and
general lethargy which are signs of dehydration
Water Yourself
With all healthy choices for breakfast food, make sure you can
absorb the nutrients with proper hydration. That means enough of
the right kind of water each day. The naturally present water in
raw foods is a great source but also make sure your water has a
low surface tension.
Though most tap and bottled water has high surface tenions,
there are ways to make water more available to your body's cells.
Silica is a natural mineral and special forms of microcluster.
silica are small enough to change the absorption properties of
water. Ask your vitamin store for it.
