Morning mood booster: A good breakfast

Boost your mood with a good breakfast
-------------------
Eat your way to a happy day! Try starting your morning with a nutritious mix of complex carbohydrates and proteins that will last you until lunch.

"We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. However, it is also proven, not only that people who eat breakfast have a lower incidence of obesity, but they may also be happier," says British Dietetic Association spokesperson, Jennifer Low.

She says: "Breakfast tends to contain carbohydrates which can increase serotonin, the 'happy chemical', in the brain."

"A good, healthy, low glycaemic breakfast might be a bowl of high fibre cereal and milk, or eggs and two slices of toast, or fruit and low fat yoghurt, for example."
