During sleep, we have basically been fasting and break(fast), means just that. The old proverb, 'Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dine like a pauper', holds a lot of truth. In the morning, our blood sugar is low and without having breakfast, can lead to irritability, poor concentration etc. I've often been guilty of chomping on a chocolate Hob Nob or 10! (we all have our days). By eating a healthy, good sized breakfast, we can significantly help to maintain our health. I like a cereal (I prefer Nestle ones, particularly 'Honey Nut Shredded Wheat' and 'Clusters'), with rice milk and 'sometimes' a splash of semi-skimmed with it and a tablespoon of Flax seed oil. I then have 2 poached eggs on toast, (eggs ARE a very good source of essential nutrients). I like to make a fruit smoothie if I have time - I vary them, but they usually involve throwing some mixed fruit juice into a blender, along with banana (this gives nice creamy texture too), any fresh fruit that I have and if I have any yoghurt, I'll throw that in too - as well as a probiotic supplement. I like adding blueberries too. You can use frozen ones - I have a friend who is not keen on fresh blueberries, but prefers frozen ones). Another idea is to buy a little coffee grinder and some flax seeds and grind them fresh before adding them to soups, stews, and yoghurts. (I also like the bags of mixed seeds you can buy, that contain sunflower seeds and others too.) Toasting seeds before putting them into salads is also a nice idea and brings out their flavour.
