Fiber Rich: Fibers are good for general health and no doubt about it. Including fiber rich food in your breakfast will help your digestive system a lot and prevent you from over eating. E.g.: oats, vegetables etc.
Nutritious: Breakfast must be capable of providing enough fuel for burning throughout the day. So make sure that it is nutritious.
Carbohydrate and protein rich: We all know that carbohydrate is a main energy source and are easily digestible. Foods with unrefined carbohydrate provide you more energy. Most common examples carbohydrate rich foods are fruits. Proteins provide strength for your cells. Add protein rich foods like milk, grain, pulses, meat etc. in your breakfast for a healthy life. Since protein is a macro nutrient, our body requires it in relatively large amount.
Avoid too fatty: Fatty foods like cream cheese, fried egg etc. always strains your stomach because it is very difficult to digest. So avoid it during breakfast.
