To the brekkie skippers, this one’s for you. If you’re struggling to hit your health and wellbeing goals, it might be time to rethink your morning routine and include a nutritious breakfast.

Breakfast literally means ‘breaking the fast,’ so it’s your chance to fuel your body for a busy day ahead.

Studies show that regular breakfast eaters enjoy multiple health benefits, including:

• Brainpower and improved energy levels
• Weight management
• Reduced risk of type 2 diabetes
• Reduced risk of heart disease

Try to build a nutrient-rich brekkie packed with vitamins and minerals from colourful fruits, vegetables, dairy (or fortified dairy alternatives) and wholegrains. If you like to start your day with a sweeter breakfast, opt for a low calorie sweetener like Splenda so you can enjoy the type of brekkie you love, without upping your added sugar intake.

Splenda Granulated is a granulated sugar substitute that will best suit baked or cooked breakfasts, whereas Splenda Stevia Liquid is a natural sugar syrup substitute that’s perfect for smoothies. If you can’t handle more than a tea or coffee in the morning, go for Splenda Sachets or Splenda Tablets to add some sweetness to your brekkie brew.

We’ve compiled our favourite easy breakfast food recipes that are low sugar to help start your day on the right track.
