Diet Tip #3

One of the most important things in eating healthy and dieting is to eat some protein with every meal. This includes breakfast!! Eggs are a great protein source for breakfast, but you could also use something like peanut butter or a few nuts.

The reason this is so important is that the carbohydrates that you eat at a meal will actually burn in the flame of the protein and they won't all go to storage in the fat pads. This is also why you want to start your meal with a bite of protein first. This sets up the pre-insulin from the pancreas and assists you body in producing insulin which is necessary to move the nutrients into cells to nourish them.

So be sure to eat protein at every meal and take a bite of it first!
