(Family Features) Before you leave the door for swimming pool days, bike rides, summer camps and other family -like activities, there is one important part to start your day on the right foot: a nutritious breakfast. Filling morning meals help you and your loved ones to offer the entire summer that has to offer, whether you become active during a walk or family walk or just soak in the sun.
In combination with a healthy lifestyle, an 8-esse glass 100% orange juice includes important nutrients such as vitamin C, folic acid, thiamine and potassium, as well as calcium and vitamin D (in enriched juices), which help support the immune system throughout the year. Summer is no exception – especially with its usual hectic schemes that include sport and other outdoor activities. Plus, it is fat-free, cholesterol-free, sodium-free, has no added sugar and consists of almost 90% water, which means that it is a healthy addition to your water hydration routine-one must during the hot summer months.
Although delicious and nutritious in itself, an option such as Florida orange juice can also be enjoyed as part of morning favorite recipes such as French Toast. As a meal that can satisfy the whole family, this French toast of orange juice with a mixed whipped cream offers a twist to a breakfast classic.
As a wonderful addition to any diet, 100% orange juice is a perfect way to sit down at the table before you tackle the adventures of the day.
