What the world's healthiest countries eat for breakfast

In March 2017, Bloomberg released its annual list of the world's healthiest countries, led by Italy, a nation known internationally for its pasta, pizza and prosciutto. Holding the next highest spots are Iceland, Switzerland, Singapore, Australia, Spain, Japan, Sweden, Israel and Luxembourg. The United States, a country renowned for its morning sugary cereals, bacon and donuts, holds the 34th place on the list, proceeded by nations in Europe, Asia and the Middle East who all have higher health scores than the U.S.

So if, as some argue, breakfast is the key to a healthier lifestyle, you may want to take a look at what the world's healthiest countries typically eat for their morning meal. Perhaps espresso or tomatoes on toast may be the key to leading a healthier life, first thing out of bed.
