Do I really need 20g of protein at breakfast?Updated 9 days ago
Short answer: probably more than you think.
Many of us start the day with a low-protein breakfast — toast, cereal, a pastry — and then end up grazing all morning. Front-loading your protein at breakfast can help you feel fuller for longer, reduce mid-morning snacking, and make it much easier to hit your daily protein goal without thinking about it.
Why we built ELEAT around 20g per serve:
- A protein-rich breakfast tends to be more satisfying than a carb-heavy one
- Spreading protein across all three meals (rather than loading it at dinner) is a habit a lot of nutritionists recommend
- 20g is a realistic, achievable amount from a single bowl — no shakes required
- It works whether your goal is fitness, weight management, or just feeling better in the morning
Of course, everyone's protein needs are different — they depend on your body, activity level and goals. If you have specific dietary requirements, it's always worth chatting to a qualified nutritionist or your GP.
