Happy world egg day
There is a great reason that the egg is in some cases described as “nature’s best bundle.” Eggs are considered among the most nutrient-dense food sources on the planet. The humble egg is loaded with protein, iron, calcium, potassium, folate, zinc, Vitamin D, and carotenoids. Eggs also contain disease-fighting nutrients like lutein and zeaxanthin.
Eggs are not only nutrient dense but there are a variety of ways in which they can be prepared. Delicious whether poached, scrambled, hardboiled, fried or in cakes, pastries and other types of food.
Other advantages for eating eggs:
- Improves cholesterol levels
- Increases metabolic activity
- Makes you feel full so you avoid hunger cravings
- Includes necessary fats, such as omega-3s
- Minimizes threat of some type of eye illness
- Minimize stress and anxiety and helps in sleep
