More Reasons for Breakfast Eaters to Smile
Breakfast isn't just the most important meal of the day; it's also a great time to care for your teeth. Growing up, my mom always ensured I had breakfast, even during hectic high school mornings. Her insistence was wise, as breakfast kick-starts your day and boosts morning performance. Plus, women who enjoy ready-to-eat breakfast cereal tend to have healthier weights.
Interestingly, breakfast also offers an opportunity for oral health care. Including tooth-friendly dairy products like yogurt and milk, which provide essential calcium, can strengthen teeth and gums. "Dairy products are alkaline and beneficial for oral health, especially since cavity-causing bacteria thrive in acidic environments," says Riva Touger-Decker, R.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor and Director of the Division of Nutrition at the New Jersey Dental School in Newark.
Dr. Touger-Decker also emphasizes the importance of brushing your teeth as part of your morning routine. "Brushing removes food particles that bacteria feed on and helps eliminate harmful overnight bacteria." Moreover, some studies suggest a link between periodontal disease and an increased risk of osteoporosis in women, providing another reason to brush daily after breakfast.
Eating breakfast allows you to consume nutrient-rich foods, such as Whole Grain Total, which deliver calcium and other essential vitamins and minerals. "Choosing the right foods at breakfast can contribute to overall health and dental wellness," notes Touger-Decker.

Q: What should I do if I'm not hungry in the morning?
A: If you're not hungry in the morning, consider having a lighter or earlier dinner, finishing at least two hours before bed. It might take a few days for your morning appetite to adjust. Allow your body some time to wake up. If eating before leaving is difficult, consider taking your breakfast with you.
By integrating nutritious choices and oral care into your breakfast routine, you set a positive tone for both your health and your smile.
