Starting the day with the kick of caffeine does more harm than good. Cortisol is the hormone that wakes you up every morning. But, once you make your body dependent on caffeine, even the cortisol hormone gives up on its set task. You become heavily dependent on tea and coffee to stay active during the latter part of the day.

We suggest you have the water-lemon combo on an empty stomach in the morning. Lemon will help in keeping the digestive system right, and the warm water will flush out toxins from your body. But, make sure that the water you are drinking is free from contaminants. After all, you don’t want to take in something polluted the first thing in the morning. It’s better to invest in an efficient water purifier to enjoy optimal health for years.

Plan breakfast menu in advance

Plan a week’s breakfast menu in advance, so that you don’t waste significant time every morning thinking about what to cook. Traditional breakfast options like poha, upma and chila are easy to make and get digested quickly. You can also look for on-the-go breakfast options like salted almonds and veggie sandwiches. Visit the grocery store during the weekends to collect all ingredients you would need to sail through the weekdays stress-free.

You also need to swear by a glass of juice every morning, as the nutrients are absorbed the most when taken empty stomach. Try fresh juices over packaged ones. Pasteurized juices are condensed and preserved with high sugar content. This adds more calories to the body. Choose cold-pressed juicers over centrifugal ones for better taste and higher nutrition. Efficient cold-pressed juicers to take much less time to produce juices that are loaded with essential vitamins and minerals.
