 Dr. John Kellogg

Dr. John Kellogg was a physician who helped create the Kellogg's cereals that helped provide a balanced nutrition. The Kellogg's cereals were noted to provide nutrition including vitamins and minerals. While cereals have been created that contain excess amounts of sugars, there are healthy cereals that can help keep a healthy diet. 

Dr. Kellogg's cereals were noted to contain nutrients and were easy to incorporate into breakfast. Cereals became a go to food for breakfast and saved time. While cereals save time, there is still the need to eat a balanced and nutritious diet. There is the science of breakfast that breakfast should be the heaviest meal of all three. 

This describes that an individual sleeps for eight hours and in the morning wakes up having not taken any food for eight hours. Breakfast should be the heaviest meal of all three and should not be skipped despite lies from pseudo science. Pseudo science from diet fads have stated that breakfast should be skipped when it should be prioritized over the other two meals.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and should be regarded as such. While cereals are good for nutrition, there is still the need to add protein (such as meat, ham, poultry, or eggs), carbs such as toast and tortillas, and even fruits and vegetables. Breakfast should be nutritious and contain healthy calories. Cereals can be incorporated to breakfast yet should be supplemented with protein, carbs, and even a little fat can be added including cream cheese or avocado. The importance is to have a balanced diet and avoid sugary cereals. Also food intake should be eliminated a few hours prior to going to bed to avoid indigestion, heartburn, and sleep disturbances.

Taking Vitamin C in Breakfast

There is the need to take Vitamin C everyday in order to help the immune system. Vitamin C is noted to improve the immune system and also combat flus and colds. Vitamin C can be both used to prevent colds and keep the immune system functioning optimally and also as treatment to fight colds. I read my Biochemistry book from college that stated that Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps the immune system and also prevents oxidative stress from damaging cells. Individuals that take Vitamin C daily are usually healthier. Linus Pauling took high doses of Vitamin C and lived to 93 years of age. 

Linus Pauling also stated that when he told physicians that he was taking large doses of Vitamin C he was essentially not believed that Vitamin C in high doses was beneficial to health. Yet Pauling kept taking large doses of Vitamin C and lived to long life. It is also noted that physicians who saw individuals with covid cases were able to treat and help individuals improve significantly by giving large doses of Vitamin C. Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits lemons, grapefruits, oranges, limes, pineapples, cranberries, and mangos. Vitamin C is also found in tomatoes and jalapeños. Even in breakfast, fruits and vegetables with Vitamin C can be used. We can add Vitamin C to breakfast to help our immune system and also fight oxidative stress.
