Apart from a pleasant activity, it is also a sure guarantee that we will not rush to dinner with wolf hunger.
Adhering to the rules of frequent eating in small portions during the day, a supportive afternoon breakfast is more than mandatory for people who follow a healthy diet.
Apart from being a pleasant activity, it is also a sure guarantee that we will not rush to dinner with wolf hunger, taking in calories that we will not burn afterwards.
The other benefit is that this way the body gets a little more energy after lunch and helps us finish our work duties at the end of the day more easily.
Of course, in order for the afternoon breakfast to be useful both for the health inside and for the figure outside, it must be in small quantities.
Overeating in this part of the day also has a bad effect on cognitive functions, making a person drowsy and less energetic.
"Golden medium" in this case means a portion of food of a maximum of 200 calories per adult. If you are trying to lose weight, the calories should not exceed 100.
According to experts, the most suitable for an afternoon breakfast are 2-3 wholemeal biscuits, a piece of cheese, a handful of nuts, two fruits or a small salad.
A healthy drink such as tea can be added to the afternoon breakfast.
