That must mean sitting down with a box of cold cereal and milk in the morning has become too time-consuming for many Americans!I\u2019m all for rethinking breakfast choices, but to be honest, I don\u2019t have high hopes that the big brands are going to come up with options that are full of bone-building, alkalizing nutrients and low in white sugar, refined grains or any of the multitudes of artificial flavors and colors.So if you are time-crunched in the morning, try one of my own ideas for quick, healthy breakfast options:\u2022 Replace coffee and sodas with alkalizing beverages such as lemon water, ginger tea, herbal coffee substitute, herbal tea, fresh vegetable juice or miso broth\u2022 A hearty bean, vegetable or meat soup from the night before\u2022 A grapefruit topped with a bit of honey, sprinkled with cinnamon with 6-8 walnuts\u2022 Rice cakes or crackers with almond butter and a piece of fruit\u2022 Fruit smoothies \u2014 a handful of bok choy added to a blueberry smoothie won\u2019t change the color or taste, and will boost your intake of calcium-rich leafy greens\u2022 Leftovers \u2014 my coworker often starts her day with spicy lentil stir fryMore delicious and convenient breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack options are included in the 30-day meal plan as part of my Better Bones Package. If the cereal companies are listening, they are welcome to use my ideas! To understand the full nutritional picture, visit our guide to bone-building nutrition essentials.Our full supplement guide reviews the evidence \u2014 see our guide to bone health supplement guide."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Bone Nutrition","item":"https:\/\/betterbones.com\/bone-nutrition\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Quick, bone-building breakfast ideas","item":"https:\/\/betterbones.com\/bone-nutrition\/breakfast-ideas\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
