Did You Know: You can eat dessert with breakfast!

Eating a sugary treat in the morning may not be the optimal choice for sustained energy, but don’t cut out that chocolate muffin just yet!

 Some research suggests eating a little something sweet in the morning can help curb sweet tooth cravings later on.

A 2012 study for instance found that people who were eating a low calorie diet and a healthy breakfast, but also incorporated a dessert, had better weight loss results. They reported having fewer cravings and feeling less hungry throughout the day. That doesn’t mean you should eat cake for breakfast every day, but if you’re eating healthy most of the time, that occasional morning pastry isn’t such a bad choice!
