Wake up America — let’s make the most of our mornings! Eating a healthy breakfast has never been more important. We’re a nation on the go. Nine-to-five has become seven-to-six — or worse. Hours like that require serious nutritional planning. Skipping breakfast might have worked back in your parents’ day, but rushing out the door with a quick gulp of orange juice just doesn’t cut it in 2019. That’s why National Today and Three Bridges Egg Bites are thrilled to bring you Better Breakfast Day on September 26.
Honestly, we would all love to whip up cheesy eggs, crispy bacon, and sausage at 6:30am, but in the real world, there’s simply no time. Three Bridges Egg Bites want to help reinvent breakfast. They’re gluten free, keto-friendly, and contain fewer carbs and sugars than other breakfast foods. Varieties include Uncured Bacon & Cheese Egg Bites and Country-Style Sausage Egg Bites. You can also go vegetarian with Bell Pepper & Cheese Egg Bites as well as a new favorite — Mushroom & Asiago Egg Bites. Did we mention you can get Three Bridges Egg Bites on the table in just 90 seconds?

“Making clean food choices has never been more top-of-mind for consumers,” says Valley Fine Foods CEO Todd Nettleton. “But for many, the hectic pace of American lifestyles leaves little time for preparing a healthy breakfast full of protein and low in sugar.
“Our Three Bridges Egg Bites offer the healthy start to the day Americans are looking for while easily fitting into their busy schedules, making them perfect for on-the-go kids, parents, and professionals.”
Better Breakfast Day timeline
Need a couple of eggs? Head no further than the backyard. Egg "farms" typically supply enough eggs for the family — plus a few extras to sell at the local farmers' market. Eventually flocks grow to around 400 hens who live outdoors with a coop for roosting.
This landmark change brings lots of improvements. Specialized henhouses result in much healthier birds. Better feeding practices also improves egg productivity. Farmers' profits increase.
California hens produce about 250 eggs per year, while mortality rates drop. Based on this, more farms across the country build new facilities which prove beneficial for everyone.
Egg farmers need better machines to handle the increased output. Conveyor belts emerge to quickly collect the eggs and carry them to the washers. Eventually labor costs fall as the nutritional quality of eggs rises.
Texas Tech researchers reveal that for healthy human beings, "There's no limitation on egg consumption. Eggs are a good source of protein that can be easily added to a person's meal." Results also show that eating eggs does not equal higher saturated-fat intake, although different preparation methods — such as frying in butter — would make a difference.

Smart breakfast choices fight diabetes
Healthy breakfasts can help keep you fit by filling you up for longer periods. That way, you tend not to overeat, which helps your blood sugar stay at lower levels — cutting your risk of type 2 diabetes.

Better breakfasts = a better day
Consuming fresh fruits like berries, melons, and raisins in your morning meal results in less fat and higher nutrients to start your day. Also, the "Journal of Adolescent Health" reports healthy breakfasts can increase concentration and short-term memory in young people.
