Office workers often rush through breakfast, settling for just a bread roll and a carton of milk. Such a breakfast is not nutritionally balanced. Experts suggest a "drag-along" breakfast is healthier: have part of your meal at home, then pack some fruit and dried nuts to eat at the office. This can be considered a more scientific approach to breakfast.
This not only makes up for the nutritional deficiencies of the morning meal but also increases satiety, ensuring充沛 energy for the entire morning, and is also beneficial for combating the dry skin common in autumn and winter.
Oranges can be considered the best fruit choice for office workers to bring after breakfast. Oranges are now in plentiful supply, and they are convenient to carry and eat in a hygienic manner.
Autumn oranges are also the most nutritious, containing plenty of carbohydrates, vitamins, dietary fiber, and various minerals. Eating one or two a day can have a great effect on moistening the lungs and strengthening the spleen.
Some people prefer to pre-cut fruit at home and pack it in containers to take to the office, a practice Director Zhao Xia does not fully endorse. "Fruit is highly susceptible to oxidation; if not eaten immediately after cutting, its nutrients are lost. It's better to peel and eat it fresh."
A reminder: According to the "Chinese Dietary Guidelines for Residents," 400 grams of fruit per day is sufficient. After bringing an orange for breakfast in the morning, you can eat a fruit that requires a bit more effort in the evening, such as a pomelo, which is also newly on the market, tastes great, and is rich in nutrients.
Little tip: Bring some dried nuts on cold days
The mornings are now quite cold. In addition to bringing fruit, you can also bring foods rich in vitamin E, such as walnuts and melon seeds. Vitamin E can help blood flow more smoothly, which tends to become sluggish in cold weather. The calories from these nuts can also help ward off the cold. Eating them with fruit can activate the entire digestive system, which is beneficial for the absorption of vitamin E.
