Oatmeal<\/h3>\n<p>You may have noticed a heart-shaped seal on your box of oatmeal recently. The seal&#8217;s there because oats contain beta-glucan, a type of fiber that&#8217;s been shown to help lower cholesterol when eaten regularly. Need another reason to dig in? Oats are also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, folate, and potassium.Steel-cut oats, which take about 15 minutes to cook, contain more fiber than rolled oats or instant varieties, but any type of oatmeal is a healthy choice. Just avoid the flavored kinds, which can be packed with sugar. Instead, sweeten your bowl with milk and a bit of honey, and top with fruit and nuts.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Greek yogurt<\/h3>\n<p>This tangy, creamy yogurt is loaded with calcium and boasts plenty of protein\u2014nearly twice as much as regular yogurt\u2014to keep you feeling full throughout the morning. Your best bet: Choose a plain, nonfat variety, and add some fruit to give it some sweetness and flavor (and a dose of added nutrition).<\/p>\n<h3>3. Wheat germ<\/h3>\n<p>A little wheat germ goes a long way. Just two tablespoons provides about 15% of your recommended daily intake of vitamin E and 10% of your daily folate.It&#8217;s easy to incorporate wheat germ into almost any meal, including your go-to breakfasts: Sprinkle it over cereal, stir it into yogurt, or mix it into a smoothie.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Grapefruit<\/h3>\n<p>Trying to lose weight? According to one study, eating half a grapefruit before each meal may help you slim down faster, thanks to the fruit&#8217;s fat-burning properties and its beneficial effect on blood sugar and insulin levels. Grapefruit is also hydrating, filling, and packed with immunity-boosting antioxidants. For a well-rounded breakfast, pair it with protein\u2014such as yogurt or an egg. But check with your doctor first if you take any medications, as grapefruit and grapefruit juice can interfere with some prescription drugs.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Bananas<\/h3>\n<p>There&#8217;s nothing like a banana at breakfast to keep those mid-morning cravings at bay. The yellow fruit\u2014especially when they&#8217;re still a touch green\u2014are one of the best sources of resistant starch, a healthy carbohydrate that keeps you feeling fuller longer.Thanks to a healthy dose of potassium, an electrolyte that helps lower blood pressure naturally, bananas are a particularly good choice for people with hypertension.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.health.com\/health\/gallery\/0,,20676415,00.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Excerpt from Health.com<\/a><\/h6>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/blog-divider-line.jpg\" alt=\"blog-divider-line\" width=\"620\" height=\"60\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landing-uat.thedolcediet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/blog-divider-line.jpg 620w, https:\/\/landing-uat.thedolcediet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/blog-divider-line-300x29.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/shop.thedolcediet.com\/collections\/personalized-plans-certifications\/products\/dolce-diet-custom-plan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17058\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Dolce-Diet-1-on-1-Consult-800.png\" alt=\"dolce-diet-1-on-1-consult-800\" width=\"620\" height=\"620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landing-uat.thedolcediet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Dolce-Diet-1-on-1-Consult-800.png 800w, https:\/\/landing-uat.thedolcediet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Dolce-Diet-1-on-1-Consult-800-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/landing-uat.thedolcediet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Dolce-Diet-1-on-1-Consult-800-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/landing-uat.thedolcediet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Dolce-Diet-1-on-1-Consult-800-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Top 5 Breakfast Foods 1.
