"Customers want you to believe that you made the right choice for a healthy breakfast, but actually same thing is dessert at breakfast," says Dr. Mark Hyman.

Cereals are said to contain high sugar, processed starch, artificial dyes, and chemicals that can affect blood sugar. All these ingredients can raise serious health problems.
