A wholesome and healthy breakfast keeps you energised throughout the day. Breakfast literally means 'breaking the fast'; since after a long haul of 8-9 hours after last night's dinner, breakfast is the first meal that literally provides you energy to go about for the day. And for that, a meal rich in protein is essential. Protein is an important macro-nutrient required by our body to help build, repair and retain the muscle mass besides promoting satiety and regulating body weight. There are plenty of ways to include protein in your breakfast and make it an interesting meal to devour.
