Starting your day with healthy fats and fiber is a great way to feel sustained and full until lunchtime. Recent research reveals that eating a breakfast high in fat, but low in carbohydrates maintains the overnight fasted metabolic state of ketosis. In ketosis, the body switches from burning glucose to ketone bodies. Fueling your body with ketones not only prevents cellular oxidative stress that decreases risk for chronic disease but also helps prevent fine lines and wrinkles, while keeping the skin elastic and youthful. You can add a serving of your favorite protein powder if you feel better with a little protein to help get the day going.
