One of the best foods to eat in the morning—or more accurately, drink—is a protein shake. Protein shakes are typically associated with people who go to the gym, but even if you're not on an exercise regime, there are still plenty of great reasons to down a protein shake in the morning. For one thing, it reduces your appetite far more than other types of protein; additionally, there are plenty of varieties out there to suit your mood, taste and diet, like eggs, whey and soya. This is another bundle of protein wrapped up inside something utterly delicious. Thanks to that protein, you'll find yourself with an increased metabolism, which converts food into fuel for your body (always helpful, especially in the mornings). As with many other foods on this list, you'll also find yourself feeling far less hungry after polishing off cottage cheese, since it fills you up and reduces ghrelin, which is known as the "hunger hormone."
