Blog31: No Time For Breakfast? Easy Tips For Not Skipping Breakfast

While most of us have busy mornings with little spare time, it is important to prioritize and make time for breakfast..even if it is something simple, or something prepared in advance the night before. Here are some ideas for quick and easy breakfast options:
1. Short on time? Grab a fruit (apples, bananas, pears, etc.)

2. A glass of milk is easy to pour in even if you are running late.                                               

3. Grab a whole-wheat toast and smear with a light layer of butter. Yes, a little fat is good for you (if it’s the right kind of fat).


4. Plan ahead - before going for a shower, keep an egg on boil. By the time you return, your healthy dose of boiled egg would be ready.

5. Eggs are a healthy treat in any form. They don’t take much time to cook, so make scrambled eggs quickly to go with your healthy whole-wheat toast.

6. Don’t go for packaged juices, regardless of the advertisements about vitamins and nutrition. Squeeze a glass of fresh orange juice in your kitchen.


7. Quick cooking oats are very nutritious and filling too. Their energy will make you run efficiently till lunchtime.

8. Yogurt smoothies are a good option too for a quick take on breakfast. Just pop in some berries or mango or banana in the blender along with some low fat yogurt and your healthy drink is ready in two minutes.

9. If you have time at hand, making a bowl of Poha or Upma or a couple of steamed Idlis, which will delight your taste buds and suffice your fiber needs too.

Now stop making excuses for shortage of time, kick start your day with a healthy breakfast. Remember there’s absolutely nothing you can do to make up for the mistake of not eating breakfast in the morning. Rise, Eat and then Shine. Thank You.!!

Blog91: Desi Protein Powder "Sattu"

It's ironic but there are some foods off our radar because they are easily available and inexpensive. For some reason, health is now an expensive proposition. Or perhaps we expect that we need to pay a lot to be healthy. A case in point is expensive protein powders that we order online when the solution really lies in our backyards. Sattu, a flour made up of roasted Bengal gram (and sometimes a bit of barley), is available around the corner. It's considered "poor man's food" as it is popular among those who do manual labour. One of the biggest benefits of this wonderful food is that it makes you immensely robust. Eating sattu in breakfast gives you a boost of protein before you begin the day. Nutritional Background 60 grams (4 tbsp) of this roasted flour will give you 19.7 grams of high-quality protein along with – Calcium and magnesium (a fantastic combination as magnesium helps calcium get better absorbed into the body). This makes it excellen...

Blog36: How Can I Combat Acid Reflux?

Acid reflux happens when your stomach acid backs up into your esophagus. Your esophagus is the muscular tube that connects your throat and stomach. The most common symptom of acid reflux is a burning sensation in your chest, known as heartburn. Other symptoms may include a sour or regurgitated food taste in the back of your mouth. Acid reflux is also known as gastroesophageal reflux (GER). If you experience it more than twice a week, you may have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In addition to frequent heartburn, symptoms of GERD include difficulty swallowing, coughing or wheezing, and chest pain.

However, what will help one person avoid GERD might not necessarily help another. Here are 12 tips you can try to preve...
