Muffin & Orange Juice

This classic breakfast combo is actually setting you up for a huge let down later in the day! Both muffins and orange juice have a lot of sugar and carbs, which will spike your blood sugar. The initial spike in blood sugar will feel good and give you a little boost of energy to start your day. However, after the initial spike, your blood sugar will drop and you’ll be hungry and cranky. Instead of getting your energy from sugar and carbs, try a more protein and fiber heavy meal, like a whole grain muffin and yogurt.
