Episode 018 - What to Eat First in the Morning to Stop the Crash Cycle
Description
Your first bite is a message—not just a meal.
In this episode, Brandon shows how leading with protein + fiber (before caffeine) anchors cortisol, flattens glucose swings, and stops the crash cycle that drives cravings, fog, and afternoon slumps. You’ll get simple templates for a quick shake or a 5‑minute plate—and why a BIOMEnd® + fiber shake is a strong option if you’re not hungry in the morning.
What we cover:
• Why skipping/mistiming breakfast creates invisible energy debt
• What not to eat first (oats/fruit/toast-only) and why it backfires
• The protein–fiber anchor (GLP‑1/PYY up, ghrelin down, steadier dopamine)
• Eat before caffeine to protect CAR, mood, and glycemic control
• Minimum‑viable templates: shake and 5‑minute plates you’ll actually use
• Where BIOMEnd® fits when rebuilding gut–liver signals in the morning
