Breaking Fast

After 8 hours of not eating anything, breaking the fast in the morning with something delicious always makes getting out of bed worthwhile.

Start with a glass of water followed by a teaspoon of Manuka honey.



Make sure it has a UMF of more than 10.

Let it work its anti-bacterial magic on the empty stomach for half an hour before eating anything.

Take that time to exercise and work up a bigger appetite.

Then have a scrumptious sandwich of avocado and bread homemade with wholemeal flour, wheat germ and a ground organic seed mix.



Let caffeine be the only vice.

Better yet, drink to the good life with a healthful cup of tea.

Does this mean that if we all converge to your home you'll make us a healthy breakfast?
..... without the exercise bit of course....

Hey there, checking out your blog!

You eat so healthily! All the pictures of the food here look so good. I'm salivating away now.

What does UMF stand for by the way? I've always wondered why Manuaka honey is supposedly better. Is it the anti-oxidants? Don't other types of honey have them?

Hi Alex
UMF stands for Unique Manuka Factor. The higher the UMF, the greater the anti-bacterial potency of the honey.
