MONACO BEAUTY BREAKFAST

Hey beauty lovers! Start the day with a big smile and a protein, good Omega 3 fat & chlorophyll rich breakfast! Seared tuna salad is super easy to make in 7 mins (recipe below) and sets your skin, endocrine system (hormones) and energy levels up for the day.

For anyone in doubt (..."fish for breakfast, euuuu") here are a couple of cool reasons to make the switch:

- According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people who eat a high-protein breakfast feel fuller and more satisfied throughout the day, they snack less and above all eat significantly less junk food.

- This could be linked to the fact that a high-protein meal reduces the production of the appetite hormone Ghrelin, which stimulates hunger.

- Another study found that people who eat breakfast, and in particular a high-protein breakfast, consume fewer calories throughout the day.

- Including abundant healthy fat (fatty fish, grassfed livestock, organic eggs, coconut oil, avocados, raw nuts) with breakfast kickstarts your hormones, as hormones are transported around our body by cholesterol, best made from animal fat.

- As hormones (testosterone, cortisol, thyroid serotonin etc) regulate every single body function, keeping them at optimum levels is simply good sense - and is a very effective method to help stay young & gorgeous.
