My most important meal

Most important meal of the day is "The Breakfast" 


This is what at least 95% people will say, and it's not wrong but it's an incomplete answer. 


But did you ever try to reason, why? 


When we wake up after 7-9 hours of sleep, our body had been fasting for that long. It's starving. The blood sugar level is low, there is no carbs or proteins in your both to produce energy and your body is in a catabolic state, which means your body is breaking down your muscles to produce energy .. which is a BAD thing .. 


Considering this reason -- how many times does your body goes into catabolic state? or near catabolic state? 



Therefore it's important to identify all those windows and kill them. 


When you wake up, of course! 
3-6 hrs time gap between your breakfast and lunch and dinner. 
Right after workout - gym or running or aerobics etc. 
Also, before you go to sleep, not because you're fasting but you're going to, so make sure you have enough supplies ... 


It's best to ensure you get good mix of carbs & proteins in all these meals. Towards end of the day, don't focus on carbs but focus on P and Fats. 


Healthy mind exists in healthy body.
