Breakfast habits in the Arab world are witnessing a noticeable transformation toward healthy and quick options, driven by lifestyle changes and rising nutritional awareness among consumers. With growing interest in fitness and energy, breakfast is no longer seen as just a traditional meal but as an essential step to start the day with vitality.
Key Components of a Healthy Breakfast:
- Whole grains: oats, whole wheat bread, low-sugar cornflakes.
- Lean proteins: boiled eggs, peanut butter, grilled chicken slices.
- Low-fat dairy products: natural yogurt, cottage cheese, fortified plant-based milk.
- Fresh fruits and vegetables: berries, bananas, cucumbers, tomatoes, providing fibers and vitamins.
Quick and Innovative Options:

- Whole grain waffles with peanut butter.
- Vegetable omelet or multi-grain pancakes.
Reasons Behind the Shift:
- Increased health awareness, especially among youth and women.
