Famous Breakfast Around The World

Did you know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day?

Siega-Riz, Popkin and Carson (1998) defined breakfast as any food, beverages or both consumed anytime between 5am and 10am and not the first meal you had when you wake up, especially if you wake up at 12pm.

Kah!

Children who eat breakfast perform better at school. They have better cognition and concentration. Eating breakfast is like recharging your brain and body for the day.

Here's the tricky part. What to eat for breakfast?

You have to eat the right kind of food to sustain your hunger until lunch time. Foods like sugary cereals, pastries or other high sugar foods caused sugar/energy spike and leave you feeling drained and hungry before mid-day.

Chose to eat fruits, complex carbs or protein instead.

Eggs are good. It can be scrambled, boiled or made into omelette.

Let's see what are the common breakfast around the world. Shall we?

Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus. Tunggulah 2 bulan kemudian langsung tak nampak batang hidung ataupun buttcheeks. Eh? Sebenarnya salah satu benda Cik Panda nak cerita pasal butt cheeks.

Ketika berpindah masuk pun, rumah CPPS tu memberikan satu energy yang baik. Maksudnya takde la rasa seram-seram, tak sedap hati gitu ka...

Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway In Lush Misty Mountain This staycation was what, late last year? Somewhere in November I think, during Deepavali long weekend.

Most of all, you don't have to go through the stress of traveling. Urghhh, few hours to & fro airport, waiting at the airport, the stress and anxiety of going through immigration and such. Just thinking about it makes me tired. #sisaging So anyway, back to Harmony Valley Retreat. You know la, sis ni suka tempat yang aman, back to nature, nyaman sejuk-sejuk.
