Indulgent breakfasts that will make your stomach flat. Fast.
Want to break-the-fast without the bloat? Stock up on these superfoods, then indulge for an energised, healthy and beautiful body.
Clean plant-based protein
Plant protein made with a combination of organic sprouted brown rice and pea protein, herbal extracts, vitamins, minerals, and pre and probiotics, is arguably the smartest way to start the day. The Nourishing Protein, a clean, natural and complete protein source, helps support superior utilisation and uptake into the cells, muscle recovery, energy levels, a lean body, and a super-flat stomach – yes!
Avocado
The fat contained in avocado not only helps reduce inflammation in the body but increases the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients, like carotenoids, that contribute to its anti-inflammatory abilities. Avocados also contain 152 mg of potassium per serving that supports metabolic function and helps build lean muscle.
Berries
Not only sweetly delicious and brimming with beauty-inducing antioxidants, berries are super-high in fibre which takes longer to digest making you will feel fuller for longer.
Eggs
Lean protein like free-range organic eggs not only stave off hunger pains, but support lean muscle, which in turn, helps burns fat. Studies have also indicated that eating a high-protein breakfast, like eggs, can help you lose more weight, lower body mass index, and whittle inches off your waist.
Wheat-free Grain
Quinoa is among the least allergenic of all the grains, making it a healthy and tasty wheat-free choice. Boasting an excellent amino acid profile, it contains all nine essential amino acids making it a complete-protein source. With twice the protein content of rice or barley, quinoa is also a fantastic source of calcium, magnesium and manganese and contains vitamins B, E and plenty of dietary fibre which is great for digestion and in turn, a lovely flat stomach.
