Breakfast has long been called the most important meal of the day. While all meals are important, breakfast plays a unique role because your body is naturally primed to eat and metabolize food in the morning. What's the best time of the day to eat breakfast? Read on to find out. Think for a minute about watching the Olympics or professional sports. Have you ever thought about how gymnasts have the strength and flexibility to perform splits in the air and not just on the ground? What you're seeing isn't just flexibility — it's a delicate balance of mobility and flexibility. Learn more about the difference below. |

| Today's workout is Find the Joy Cardio. Join the 31-Day Bust a Mood Challenge. What's the difference between mobility and flexibility? Mobility is active, while flexibility is passive. Think of it this way: If flexibility is about how far you can stretch (like being able to do the splits), mobility is about how well you can move and control your body through that stretch (like standing and lifting your leg as high as you can). Both are super important, but they serve different purposes in keeping your body happy and healthy. Try these simple mobility exercises. |

Eat breakfast before this time every morning for optimal health, registered dietitian says |
Research suggests that eating earlier in the day may lead to better blood sugar control, improved weight management and even benefits for heart health. In fact, studies show that people who eat the bulk of their calories earlier tend to have an easier time maintaining a healthy weight compared to those who eat most of their calories later in the day. So what's the best time to eat breakfast? |
