🍎 Today’s Health Tip ~ What Is a Healthy Way to Begin the Day?

Foods that contain little or no carbohydrate, like eggs, nuts, and meats, have a glycemic index and load of close to zero. . . . So what are some healthy breakfast choices? . . . Here are some easy options to fuel you for your busy day:

    1. plain yogurt, fruit, and nuts 
    2. oatmeal, fruit, nuts
    3. whole wheat or rye toast with nut butter
