One of Daphne Oz‘s tips in her book, Dorm Room Diet, is to make breakfast the largest meal of the day.
In other words, eat like a Roman Gladiator would.
Scientists who’ve examined the skeletons of the soldiers discovered they were large beefcakes, but rarely ate animal proteins. Based on the levels of zinc and strontium in cells, experts are able to determine the diet of the deceased warriors. Because the Gladiators had higher levels of strontium and little zinc, it was determined they ate mainly vegetarian.
Yet, these guys were HUGE with strong bone density so it’s a safe bet they’re breakfasts consisted of high protein, good carbs and a decent amount of good fat like Oz’s super starter of the day meal, Gladiator Oatmeal.
