Nutritionists call breakfast the most important part of the diet, not only because it gives you energy for the first half of the day, and because morning coffee or tea helps you wake up.

There are some foods that will help your body hold out until lunch without closing your eyes, and there are others that will make you nod off.

Let's start with the latter and tell you what is best to exclude from your morning diet.

Sleepy foods

Not only baked goods, but also products containing an abundance of sugar, such as pancakes, waffles and other donuts, with aromatic coffee will invigorate only for the first time. The reason is the amount of sugar and processed carbohydrates.

Therefore, white bread, cereals and yogurt with fillers can cause blood sugar spikes, which means quick drowsiness or fatigue.

An invigorating breakfast

You won't have to invent anything. A simple diet will help you keep your mind fresh until lunch, just like after a cup of coffee.

These can be boiled eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables, cottage cheese and whole grain products.

After such a breakfast, thoughts of taking a nap somewhere during working hours will not arise until at least lunchtime.
