The Best Foods to Eat First in the Morning and Evening (Backed by Science)

 Think about this! Are you feeling really good when you wake in the morning? Are you eating “fast food” and “snacks” during the day? Take charge and take care of your gift from Hashem. However, contrary to what some may think, a pitta with salad, tahina, and a couple felalel is super good. Read below. 

ie fat, protein then the carb for easy start to the day.

What if the problem was never the food… but the order you ate it in? In this video, we explore one of the most overlooked discoveries in metabolic science: the sequence of food changes the biology of what happens next. The same meal can produce completely different glucose spikes, insulin responses, cravings, and energy levels depending on what lands in the stomach first. Drawing from research at Weill Cornell, Osaka University, and controlled circadian studies from Harvard and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, this video explains why vegetables and protein before carbohydrates can dramatically reduce post-meal glucose spikes — in some studies by over 70%. You’ll learn: • Why healthy breakfasts still cause energy crashes • Why evening meals hit harder after 50 • How GLP-1, insulin, and gastric emptying actually work • Why nighttime hunger is biologically programmed • The hidden difference between breakfast metabolism and dinner metabolism • The exact morning and evening eating sequence supported by science The meal did not change. The first bite did.

The Six Mitzvos of Guarding One’s Health

Why does any of this matter to halachic Yidden? Because guarding one’s health is not just common sense – it is a mitzvah. In fact, our Poskim point to as many as six of them.

1. There is the mitzvah of “veNishmartem me’od b’nafshosaichem” (Devarim 4:9) – the mitzvah of protecting our health and well-being.
2. Few have heard of the second mitzvah. The verse later on (Devarim 4:15), “Rak hishamer lecha,” is understood by most Poskim to comprise an actual second mitzvah (see Rav Chaim Kanievsky zt”l, Shaar HaTeshuvos #25) – to take special care.
3. There is a third mitzvah, “V’Chai Bahem – and you shall live by them” (VaYikra 18:5).
4. There is a fourth mitzvah found in the verse in Parshas Ki Saytzei (Devarim 22:2), which discusses the mitzvah of Hashavas Aveidah, returning a lost object, with the words “vahasheivoso lo – and you shall return it to him.” The Gemara in Sanhedrin (73a) includes within these words the obligation of returning “his own life to him as well.” In other words, this verse is the source for the mitzvah of saving someone’s life. This is the general mitzvah the Shulchan Aruch refers to in Orach Chaim 325.
5. “Lo Saamod al dam rayecha” – there is a fifth, a negative mitzvah, of not standing idly by your brother’s blood. This is mentioned in Shulchan Aruch (Choshen Mishpat 426:1) and in the Rambam. It includes yourself, and your spouse and children too, by leaving them without you, chalilah.
6. And finally, there is a sixth mitzvah – “Lo suchal l’hisaleim,” a negative commandment associated with the positive commandment of Hashavas Aveidah, in the verse in Devarim (22:3): “You cannot shut your eyes to it.” This verse comes directly after the mitzvah of Hashavas Aveidah. The Netziv (HeEmek She’eilah) refers to this mitzvah as well.

Guarding one’s health also includes “treatments and medicines” that have deleterious affects on one’s perfectly created universe within one’s body. And the best treatment one can digest is the natural foods that Hashem planted in Mother Earth. Let food be one’s medicine. 🍉 🍎 🍌 🥕 🥗 🫜 Learn which ones are good for your internal chemistry.
