Getting the day off to the best possible start involves more than just grabbing coffee and a pastry on your way to work or school. To get the most out of your day, you have to start from the beginning with the right fuel. Taking the time to eat a decent breakfast pays off — you'll be healthier, and you may even lose a few pounds as the result of staving off mid-morning hunger pangs that lead straight to pastries on the coffee cart.<\/p>\n

Following are five breakfast superfoods that residents of apartments in Flagstaff<\/a>, Arizona<\/a>, can use to jump start their mornings. <\/p>\n

Oatmeal <\/strong><\/h2>\n

\nWhole grain oatmeal provides a filling and nutritious way to start out the day. Stir raisins, walnuts, flax seeds, or your choice of dried fruit into the oatmeal for added flavor and nutrition. <\/p>\n

Berries<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\nAll types of berries are nutritional powerhouses, but blueberries and blackberries pack the biggest punch. Although all berries are delicious when eaten plain, blueberries have a firm structure that makes them extremely versatile. For instance, they can be stirred into hot cereal, pancake batter or muffin mix. Blackberries and raspberries are softer, and both are good choices for using as toppings for French toast or pancakes. <\/p>\n

Eggs<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\nEggs fell out of favor for a time as a preferred breakfast staple because they were thought to be high in cholesterol. However, recent studies show that isn't the case. Research has found that starting the morning with a high protein meal makes you less likely to crave fatty snacks later on in the day. <\/p>\n

Bananas<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\nBananas can be sliced over cereal or pancakes or enjoyed plain. They make a great choice for those mornings when you've got no time to cook and need something fast. Often referred to as 'nature's perfect food,' bananas are packed with vitamins and minerals. <\/p>\n

Greek Yogurt <\/strong><\/h2>\n

\nGreek yogurt is another excellent way begin the day with a good blast of protein. It's also brimming with healthy probiotics for optimal digestive health. It can be enjoyed plain, but is especially delicious when mixed with granola, nuts and berries before being drizzled with raw honey. <\/p>\n
