April 23, 2008: 12:00 AM EST
Eating whole grains and proteins at breakfast time can significantly lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, type-2 diabetes, and heart failure, according to a report in “The Harvard Letter”. The report recommends the following options: oatmeal with fruit and walnuts; high-fiber, whole-grain cereal with milk and fruit; 6 or 8 ounces of 1 percent yogurt with blueberries and sunflower seeds or a whole-grain English muffin with peanut butter; omelet made with one egg and one egg white, or egg substitute, served with whole-grain toast and orange slices; or a smoothie made with milk, yogurt, orange or pineapple juice, strawberries or blueberries, and banana, plus some oat bran, ground flax seeds, or wheat germ.
