Yeah, this is a good thing. Breakfast cereal is dog food for humans. There are much healthier options. The only reason breakfast cereal has much nutritional value at all is because they add it artificially. Don’t get me started on the low fiber sugary cereals, that’s just pure garbage. Yes there are some healthier options, oats without added sugar is probably the best. But that’s cheap as dirt and hardly counts as cereal.

It’s just refined carbohydrates, a sprinkling of vitamins, and ton of sugar. You could be eating pastries with a multivitamin and you wouldn’t be doing any worse.

Yogurt or oatmeal and fruit is great. Eggs are amazing. My grandfather was a doctor who ate bacon and eggs every day. He made it to 90, died of prostate cancer. He didn’t eat sugar though. I tend to skip breakfast and go straight to lunch, otherwise I gain weight. I can’t personally do three meals a day. Everyone is different though.
