Our emphasis for January is BREAKFAST! You have heard the adage, “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and supper like a pauper.” There is a lot of truth in this statement. Inspiration tells us, “And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.” (1 Kings 17:6) God made sure Elijah had a good breakfast every day. And, “The habit of eating a sparing breakfast and a large dinner is wrong. Make your breakfast correspond more nearly to the heartiest meal of the day.” (CG 390.2) Eating a nutritious breakfast each day is associated with better verbal affluence, improved problem solving, better scholastic abilities and improved energy. It is also an aid to weight management, which will be addressed later this month in an upcoming Pearls for Health. So, if you want better grades for your children or grandchildren, if you desire better physical, mental and spiritual health, make sure to start your day with a good breakfast.
