Any excuse…
When it comes to choosing the best food to eat to start your day right, we’ve been informed of multiple foods that give us the right boost in the mornings.
Earlier this week we found how chocolate is beneficial to your health when eaten in the mornings and the best time to eat your brekkie, but this new study saying that ice-cream is a good mental boost is definitely news to us.
According to Cosmopolitan, a study in Japan found that people who had eaten ice cream had far better reaction times and understood information much quicker than their counterparts who’d forgone the delights of ice cream for breakfast.
Lecturer Yoshihiko Koga at Kyorin University in Japan published a study which said that a scoop of ice cream in the morning gives you a mental boost and makes you more alert.
The soothing feeling of ice cream on both the body and the mind also showed that levels of mental irritation were much lower, meaning less bad moods and crankiness after waking up.
Because of the coldness of ice cream, professor Koga tested the levels of mental stimulation after ice cream against the mind of someone after drinking cold water – but found that post-ice cream mental stimulation was far higher.
Well there you have it – we’ve heard of putting nuts, fruit and chocolate in our porridge to give a well-needed boost in the mornings – but ice-cream we have not.
Breakfast Brunch anyone?
