Starting the day off right

I am a big believer in eating a healthy breakfast every morning.  It helps speed up your metabolism and gives you energy to start your day.  So who would not want to do that every day.  I usually have eggs, protein shake, or special K cereal.  This morning was two boiled egg whites.  There is only 17 calories in one whole egg white.   Egg whites consist mainly of water, proteins, minerals, vitamins, fats and glucose. They have very small amounts of fat andcholesterol, but are rich in selenium and vitamins such as Vitamin D, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12. The protein Ovalbumin present in egg whites is important for the metabolism of enzymes in the body. Egg whites also contain minerals such as zinc, iron, copper, phosphorus, calcium and potassium. These minerals help in the development of teeth, bones and fingernails.  So start your day
