As with the croissants a fry up breakfast is ok once in a while but try to grill everything as much as you can and have poached eggs instead of fried.


Eggs are another great food to start your day with. Try soft boiled eggs with very little salt and some toast. You could even soldier them!

Off course having breakfast is time consuming and if you are one of those people who leave yourself just enough time in the morning to fall out of bed



and in to the shower and are still adjusting your clothes when running out the door, then I suggest you make yourself a fruit smoothy in the mornings.

Mix your favourite fruits in a blender with some yogurt, a touch of honey and some ground pistachio’s to top it off. It is an incredibly healthy option to grabbing a bite from the small news agents in the underground station, which generally tends to be a bar of chocolate!

If like me you love nothing more than a cup of tea in the morning then try and make it herbal tea, Although, resisting a cup of English breakfast with milk is as hard as resisting the latest pair of Choo’s!! Ok maybe not quite as hard!


You must try and switch from having black tea with milk to herbal.


I drink any thing between 10 to 15 cups of green or white tea a day. It is my only form of water in take as I do not like the taste of water.

Drink as much green, white or any other herbal tea as you can. They have amazing health benefits as I will explain later.


BANANAS


Bananas are very rich in potassium, vitamin B6 and vitamin C; are a good source of fibre, magnesium and biotin. However bananas are full of calories and sugar and they have lower water content than other fruit.

Bananas are known to help with heart function, blood pressure, assist in lowering cholesterol and the gastrointestinal tract and regulating bowl function.

They are great to give to kids whilst travelling as they seem to have a calming effect and assist with sleep.
