MixMyOwn – A fun make your own healthy breakfast company

Mix My Own is a fun make your own cereal or muesli mix company! They recently sent me a yummy bag to try and included some healthy eating tips and recipes for my Your Healthiest You readers. Enjoy!

7 Tips for Healthy Breakfasts

1.Don’t skip breakfast – skipping breakfast leads to snacking and overeating the rest of the day – muesli, granola or multi-grain flakes cereal is quick and easy and helps prevent snacking and overeating later in the day

2.Eat  enjoyable breakfast foods – looking forward to breakfast makes it less likely to be a meal that gets skipped – with over 100 ingredients and a variety of options, custom-mixed cereals from MixMyOwn.com give customers a variety of combinations with their favorite flavors

3.Avoid foods high in cholesterol and fat like fatty breakfast meats and fried eggs – whole-grain foods like muesli, granola or multi-grain flakes have little fat and almost no unhealthy cholesterol

4.Eat foods high in fiber – fiber prevents some fats from being absorbed by the body and reduces risk for heart disease – MixMyOwn.com’s custom cereals have up to 4 grams of fiber per serving.

5.Include protein – protein builds muscle and staves off hunger – muesli, granola or multi-grain flakes with nuts and whole grains can add significant protein without adding excess saturated fat; MixMyOwn.com’s Tutty Nutty premix contains 3.9 grams of protein per serving.

6.For fast, portable breakfast make your own smoothie – homemade smoothies can be drank while commuting to work and can contain fresh ingredients with less sugar and fat – muesli is a great smoothie ingredient as in this Banana Muesli Smoothie recipe from the New York Times.

7.Include superfoods – superfoods boost the immune system, aid with weight loss and lower risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer – favorite superfoods include nuts, seeds, berries, oats, and soy, all of which can be included in any custom cereal mix at MixMyOwn.com.
