Do I have to eat breakfast, and if so, when and what?
(to) break = to break, (to) fast = to fast
Breakfast is the first meal, which breaks your overnight fast. Your body got to rest and recover. Now it needs fresh energy, right?
In short: there is no universal, perfect breakfast.
There are only questions you can ask yourself to find the breakfast that is perfect for you.
1. Have breakfast when you're really hungry.
The wake-up hormone cortisol flows through your body most strongly about 30 to 45 minutes after waking up, mobilising your body's energy reserves for brushing your teeth and a morning workout on an empty stomach. Fat deposits keep being broken down until you have breakfast. Many of us don't feel any appetite during that time anyway. You too? Then have breakfast later! We still recommend drinking enough. Especially in the cold season, our tasty tea blends give you a warm feeling in your belly.
Intermittent fasting with the 16:8 method:
A fantastic method with numerous health-supporting effects! Great for everyone who isn't hungry in the morning. 16:8 means you eat nothing for 16 hours and only take in food within 8 hours. Drinks without calories, like our different teas, you can drink at any time of day. If you have dinner at 6 pm, for example, you wait until 10 am for breakfast. How you plan your window and what you eat within it is up to you.
2. Have breakfast that does you good.
Short-chain carbohydrates combined with protein and fat give you power and keep you full for a long time. How about quark, fresh fruit and nuts? Sounds great. Super time-consuming! No time to cut fruit in the morning? We feel you! Grab a tub of quark, a handful of nuts and a Frank Juice (add link): that gives you the perfect base for a balanced breakfast with maximum time saved. Only a little hungry? Then treat yourself to 330ml of concentrated veg power from our green juices or a fiery ginger shot.
3. Have breakfast when you're relaxed.
Unwrapping your green Frank Juice in a rush at the station and finishing it on the platform while boarding? No way: wait for a relaxed moment and enjoy every sip. Anticipation is the best part, after all.
4. Have breakfast when you're not distracted.
Checking messages on WhatsApp, reading up on new Covid rules, stopping the dog from gnawing the office chair, trying to remove coffee stains from the desk, reading the weather forecast... and having breakfast at the same time? No way: you have breakfast. And do nothing else on the side!
So you see: many roads lead to your perfect breakfast. Frank Juice is always by your side, no matter how stressful it gets.
