  • DO NOT MISS YOUR BREAKFAST

    Do not miss your breakfast


    Think about Rathna Café Idli, Vada Sambar..Oh
    What a Taste!!!



    “Breakfast
    like a King, Lunch like a Prince and Dinner like a Pauper” is a very
    famous proverb and is very true considering the fact that 25 percent of the
    day's calorie should come from breakfast.

    Glucose is the main source of energy
    for brain and the continuous supply of glucose is required to improve
    concentration, mental performance, memory and mood. Researches have shown that
    breakfast helps to replenish blood glucose levels in the brain.



    Skipping breakfast often leads to poor
    concentration, irritability, low blood sugar levels and a high craving for food
    in midmorning or lunch. These results in overeating and weight gain. In fact it
    would be easier to control your weight by eating smaller meals and healthy
    snacks more frequently than skipping any meal.





    In India,
    there are varieties of breakfast items available which are nutritious and
    provide the required amount of energy to sustain throughout the day. Breakfast
    foods differ from region to region. Let us review some of the common breakfast
    items.



    Idli and dosa - made from rice and pulse, it gives good amount of energy
    and proteins and if had with Vegetable sambar, it contributes to vitamins and
    minerals.



    Upma - there are varieties of upma prepared, most of them with semolina
    which is energy rich. However Upma prepared with broken wheat and vegetables is
    very nutritious because of its fiber content.


    Ven Pogal Vada Combination is too Good



    Sandwiches - prepared with vegetables/ and brown bread
    is a complete breakfast food containing all the vital nutrients and of course
    fibre. But i never liked brown bread; but no way i can avoid it as i am diapetic.


    Bread omelet - is a high protein breakfast food and very much
    recommended especially for children, athletes and those who are looking to
    build muscles. However people with cholesterol or any heart problems should
    prepare the omelet only with egg white
    .

    Konjam komattum and i do not like the smell.



    Oats/cornflakes/ Raw rice Kanji/ Kanji Mavu/ with milk and fruits - Oats is gaining lots of popularity these
    days owing to its high content of soluble fibre and its benefit in reducing
    cholesterol in the body. So oats with skimmed milk and fresh fruits are a very
    good option especially for those who are on a weight reduction diet


    I take Boiled rice Kanji adding Splenda.

    Whenever

    I go to India/ Chennai, at least once I go Rathna Café Triplicane for 2 idlies, 2 vadas
    and bucket full of sambar!!! Oh. What a taste!!!
