No matter how many breakfast options exist, porridge remains in demand. Nutritionist Anna Veselova named the most beneficial morning dishes: they are worth eating for both adults and children.
Many have been accustomed to starting their day with fragrant warm porridge since childhood. The healthiest is oatmeal, the specialist stated. It perfectly combines proteins, fiber, magnesium, zinc, selenium, iron, phosphorus, and manganese. If served with fruits, berries, or nuts, the set of nutrients will be enhanced with vitamins and healthy fats. Oatmeal will wonderfully satisfy morning hunger and keep the feeling of fullness until the next meal.
In second place, Anna Veselova placed pearl barley porridge. It is recommended to soak the grains overnight before cooking. The main advantage of pearl barley is that it can be made not only sweet. A delicious porridge can be made with chicken broth. This is both nutritious and beneficial for the immune system.
The third option that should not be overlooked is millet porridge. It is healthy but is considered more "heavy" compared to oatmeal and pearl barley.
The doctor also mentioned the popular rice porridge. Occasionally, it can also be served for breakfast, but remember that in terms of benefits, it falls short of the previously mentioned leaders.
