Why Start the Morning with Protein?
A balanced breakfast is very important, and this includes protein. Having protein with breakfast can provide the amino acids your brain needs to function at an optimal level. This helps your brain produce norepinephrine and dopamine, helping to stabilize mood and providing energy to kickstart your day. Protein, especially with breakfast, keeps us feeling satisfied for longer, manages blood sugar levels, and increases energy levels. So, power up your breakfast with this Tofu packed Vegan Frittata.
