This is the ideal breakfast for someone who is trying to reduce their carb intake and increase fat intake, the fats contained in this breakfast are the good ones. Eggs are loaded with nutrients and the salmon delivers the omega fats which are great for overall health. I have been receiving a lot of requests for Banting friendly meals, especially breakfasts. I personally favour a well balanced diet including carbs, but the more research I am seeing shows that certain people react better to a high fat, medium protein low carb diet. If you choose to follow a diet program like this, and are consuming high levels of fat, my only advice would be to ensure wherever possible that you source the best possible quality ingredients, meat should be grass fed and hormone free, eggs should be free range, and you want dairy products from reputable farms who are for their animals. Check out suppliers like The Gourmet Greek, Mooberry Farms, etc, losing weight is of no value if you suddenly up your intake of toxins from a low grade of mass farmed products.
