Health Benefits of Eggs
1. Eggs are rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals. Egg yolk contains high levels of vitamin A, D, E, B12, choline, biotin, lutein, zeaxanthin, and omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients help maintain good vision, skin, bones, teeth, hair, nails, and the immune system. Egg whites are high in protein and low in fat. They are great for weight loss and muscle building.
2. Eggs are also rich in cholesterol, which helps build strong muscles and bones. Cholesterol is necessary for brain function and hormone production. However, too much cholesterol can cause heart disease and stroke.
3. Eggs have many nutritional benefits. They are a complete food containing all nine essential amino acids (the building blocks of protein). They are also a good source of iron, zinc, copper, selenium, and manganese.
4. Eggs are versatile and can be eaten alone or added to recipes. You can use them in place of meat, cheese, bread, pasta, pancakes, muffins, omelets, casseroles, salads, soups, sauces, dips, and desserts.
