Source: Healthline 

Fruit juice

Fruit juices do not have fibre and having it first thing in the morning can raise blood sugar levels. The best alternatives to fruit juice can be lemon water, cucumber juice and sattu.

Pancakes and waffles

Pancakes and waffles might be easy to make in a rushed morning but eating these first thing in the morning can set the stage for craving for unhealthy food the entire day. It leaves you with less energy and reduces your productivity.

Tea/ Coffee

Having tea right after waking up can do more harm than good, so does coffee. High doses of sugar, caffeine, and nicotine first thing in the morning can cause acidity, stomach burning and also spike blood sugar.

Pastries

Pastries are again loaded with sugar, fat, and calories while being low in protein and fibre. They are unlikely to keep you full for a long time and you may end up hungry long before lunchtime.

Protein bars

These cereal protein bars might seem convenient to eat on the go but they contain a lot of sugar with little protein. These are mostly added sugars, making them one of the worst breakfast foods.

Smoothies 

Having smoothies alone with no side food or dish can be one of worst breakfast food mistake one can make. Having just a glass of smoothie will result in highly sugary breakfast, especially if it has lot of fruits.
