A good breakfast will include good foods from the "Basic Four Food Groups" and will include enough food to satisfy you until you can eat again.
  • Little Kids? - Of course! Young children need nourishing foods throughout the day for the development of sound minds and bodies.
  • School children? - Right! Boys and girls can't concentrate and learn as well when their stomachs are empty.
  • Teenagers? - You bet! Nutritional needs are never greater than during the teen years - especially during periods of rapid growth.
  • Moms and Dads? - None of us can do his or her best with home and work responsibilities when we're hungry.
  • Grandparents and older folks? - Yes! Seniors need the some nutrients as young adults - only fewer calories.
  • Dieters? - Absolutely! Persons who skip breakfast tend to nibble - or - "starve", then "stuff" at the next meal. Any good reducing diet includes a nourishing breakfast
