A good breakfast to start your day–takes little or no time to prepare. One of my all time favorites. 1 cup of old fashioned oats, 1 cup of vanilla soy milk, half a cup of blueberries, handful of strawberries, half a teaspoon/sprinkling of cinnamon.
Oats – whole grain and source of carbohydrate which gives you energy. Will help you feel fuller for longer. Also is full of fiber and can help reduce cholesterol.
Soy milk – dairy and lactose free, making it easy to digest for those who are lactose intolerant. Still has a good amount of calcium and soy protein as regular milk.
Blueberries and strawberries – are a good source of fibre as well as having a high content of antioxidants (blueberries especially). Antioxidants help to fight off free radicals which are damaging to your body and can cause an increase in inflammation and can lead to degenerative diseases. Antioxidants also strengthen your immune system as well as
slowing down the aging process.

Cinnamon – A spice which is great when sprinkled on food. Also good for boosting metabolism and burning fat.
