Probably every parent has thought about whether there are products that would contribute to the success of a little student.

The answer to this question is yes – today we will tell you what to feed your child before school so that he or she can better absorb new information and be more open to communicating with peers.

Breakfast for the brain

As is known, glucose is fuel for the brain. It is found in large quantities in legumes, which also contain B vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids and antioxidants.

In this regard, a great breakfast for a schoolchild would be a homemade burrito consisting of a whole wheat tortilla, eggs and lightly refried beans.

As nutritionist Anne Kaltz, who is also an expert in combating childhood obesity, points out, this dish is a good, complete breakfast with fats, carbohydrates and proteins.

In addition, glucose can also be found in oatmeal - to make it more attractive to your child, sprinkle the contents of the plate with cinnamon or add nuts, berries, fruits or honey.

Make sure your child's diet includes whole grain products - for breakfast, you can offer your child a sandwich made from whole grain bread with a slice of ham and an egg.
