I will try lessening my grain intake, I think. Can you advise good breakfast alternatives, please, that limit grains.
Thanks
I've always preferred liquid breakfasts. Well, years ago, I loved eating cereal with milk, but that fell by the wayside! But for more than a decade, I have a big smoothie for breakfast.
I'll make up a quart of it. One pint is my breakfast, followed by a big mug of Genmaicha Tea and the second pint is for brunch, a couple of hours later. Then my main meal will be in the early afteroon, and my supper will be 3 1/2 to 4 hours before bed.
Recipe is for a generous 4 Cups Smoothie:
1 1/2 cup Pineapple Juice 1/8 C filtered Water 10 oz plain Yogurt (I use goat yogurt) 1/4 C ground Chia Seeds (or 3 Tb ground Chia and 2 Tb ground Flax) 1 C frozen blueberries 1/2 C frozen sweet cherries 1 rounded Tb Lecithin 1 tsp High Lignan Flax Oil 1 tsp ProBerry Liquid 1 tsp Elderberry extract
Sometimes I'll add other things, such as ARA6 (Dr. D's Larch Fiber powder); or some type of powdered green food, such as wheat grass, barley grass or Harmonia.
This drink is one of my favorite meals of the day, and it's very satisfying.

right now I like full fat yoghurt with some kind of berries- sometimes as a smothie-. but it NEEDS to be fullfat! or my blodsugar crash. I use a special danish organic yoghurt with extra protein but it could me filmjølk( cultured milk) or kefir as well.
I really don´t like sweet yoghurts and I aim for yoghurts made of milk from grassfed organic cows and yoghurt culture and nothing added. As I recall in US yoghurt can contain lots of fillers and c**p.
In winter I often prefer eggs with veggies (That is what my O type eats all year round)
Sunday I sometimes have bread or pancakes.
I summertime I often like to have a mixed salad with watermelon and feta or mozzarella cheese or Cottagecheese/ricottabased breakfast
