When it comes to breakfast, options like cereal and oatmeal may come to mind. But many would rather switch up the first meal of their day and try something new. That’s where pho comes in. If you’re not familiar with this Vietnamese food, here’s why it makes an excellent breakfast. 

The Top Reasons to Enjoy Pho for Breakfast

1. Boost Your Immune System 

While Vietnamese food offers many healthy choices, pho itself is especially nutritious and can boost your immune system. That’s because the rich broth is steeped in herbs like garlic and ginger and infused with healthy peppers. This combination kick starts your body’s ability to fight off infections as you go out into the world.

2. Consume More Protein

Vietnamese food has a great balance of ingredients, and pho is traditionally eaten for breakfast because it contains many elements your body needs in the morning, including protein. Pho features both a meat of your choice and beef or chicken broth. Lean protein at breakfast keeps you alert, provides amino acids that help regulate your body throughout the day, and makes you less likely to feel hungry later.

3. Hydrate With Super Broth

Your body needs to eat, but it really needs to drink. Hydrating in the morning is a crucial part of breakfast.  Water carries nutrients to your cells, flushes bacteria from your system, and improves all around health. In pho, the water-filled beef broth is delicious and flavorful, and gives you the many advantages of hydration after a long sleep, including jump-starting your metabolism, fueling your brain, and boosting alertness.
