A member asked:

Can you tell me is having porridge with a piece of fruit a healthy breakfast?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pretty good.: The fruit is fine, of course, but I'd like to see something with more fiber than porridge. How about steel cut oats? Not bad, though. Oh where's your protein? You'd need a good lean protein source like egg whites.
