Jakarta, 24 October 2016 – Breakfast is still often overlooked by many people, from children to adults, but it is actually the most important meal of the day. In fact, morning nutrition plays a vital role in supporting growth and providing energy for activities. Research data also shows that around 44.6% of elementary school children still consume breakfast with low nutritional quality. Without the right nutrients, the body lacks adequate fuel, often leading to premature fatigue and difficulty concentrating throughout the day. 

Breakfast with Complex Carbohydrates and Fiber
Responding to this phenomenon, dr. Grace Judio-Kahl, on the DR OZ Indonesia program on TransTV, explained that a quality breakfast must have the right nutritional balance. Carbohydrates are still needed as the main source of energy, but should be combined with sufficient fiber intake. The presence of fiber in your morning menu is incredibly useful for maintaining stable blood sugar levels and helping to regulate appetite, ensuring you don’t feel hungry again long before lunchtime arrives. 

For Indonesians, rice is often considered the only source of carbohydrates, even though there are other alternatives that are much richer in fiber. One of the best recommended options is whole wheat. Compared to regular processed carbohydrates, whole wheat provides a longer feeling of fullness and more concentrated nutrients. By switching to wiser carbohydrate choices, we are not just filling our stomachs, but also optimizing our body’s long-term health.
