        A good nutritious, well-balanced breakfast can give you energy, prevent you from eating too much during the rest of the day and boost your productivity. Here are the 12 best foods to eat in the morning. 1. Eggs Eggs  are certainly healthy and delicious. Studies have found that eating eggs at breakfast increases feelings of fullness, reduces calorie intake at the next meal and helps keep steady blood sugar and insulin levels.

The impossibility of social distancing in communities, where large families often share a single room. For months health experts have been warning that living conditions in poor, urban communities across Africa are likely to contribute to a rapid spread of coronavirus.
