A nutritionist has listed the best ingredients for a healthy children's breakfast.

In particular, cottage cheese is a suitable option, which can be consumed plain or used to make syrniki.

“In addition to syrniki, eggs can be served for breakfast. This product contains lecithin, a substance that is part of the nerve cell membranes; the better the membrane, the faster the nerve cells transmit signals, which in turn improves attention, memory, and processing speed,” explained Kononenko.

Complex carbohydrates in a schoolchild's morning diet will stimulate mental activity. This could be oatmeal made from whole grains with walnuts, berries, or fruits.

“At the same time, it is important to avoid pastries, snacks, and sweets. After consuming such products, a child will quickly feel hungry and suffer from a growling stomach during the first lessons,” the doctor noted.
