BREAKFAST is important because it provides the energy and focus one needs to perform throughout the day.

This is especially true for children who are still growing and require nutrition to ensure optimal developmen­t.

Studies have shown that children who consume breakfast perform better than their counterpar­ts who do not.

Having this first meal of the day allows them to focus and remember better.

The quality of the breakfast is also important.

Research shows that children who had whole grains with milk for breakfast outperform­ed those who had taken a low-fibre, highglycem­ic meal.

So, for those who consider nasi lemak or roti canai a source of energy for breakfast, think again.

The ideal brain and energy booster

If you are worried about how to ensure your child or children get a good, healthy breakfast, fret not.

There is a breakfast out there that is healthy, easy to prepare and affordable.

The delicious taste will earn you points from the rest of the family too.

NH Nutri Grains tick all the boxes, making for a wonderful wholesome breakfast.

It contains 20 different types of grains including walnuts, which are well known for boosting brain power.

They are high in DHA, an omega3 fatty acid that improves cognitive performanc­e.

Similarly, mung bean is rich in folate, which helps boost cognitive function, cell and tissue growth and DNA synthesis.

It is also a high source of antioxidan­ts and magnesium, making it an ideal food to improve one’s immune system, digestive health and help with muscle tissue repair.

Mung bean is a good source of fibre and protein as well, which makes for filling food.

Hence, with NH Nutri Grains, you can be sure that your child stays full and focused for longer periods.

Meanwhile, soybean is rich in vitamin K and essential for bone health while millet contains minerals such as copper, manganese, magnesium and phosphorus – all of which are great for the heart and repair of body tissue.

These beans are also rich in protein and fibre, allowing for more mileage from an NH Nutri Grains breakfast compared to other foods.

Finally, complement­ing the benefits of the grains is the purple sweet potato.

It has the highest antioxidan­t content compared to other coloured potatoes, making it a super booster to the immune system with memory-enhancing effects.

All this is in addition to it being a delicious and filling treat for the tummy.
