Eggs are one of my absolute favorite foods and here’s some info on how eggs will improve your overall health!
– Eggs are great for the eyes. According to one study, an egg a day may prevent macular degeneraton due to the carotenoid content, specifically lutein and zeaxanthin. Both nutrients are more readily available to our bodies from eggs than from other sources.
– Eggs may prevent breast cancer. In one study, women who consumed at least 6 eggs per week lowered their risk of breast cancer by 44%.
– According to one study, regular consumption of eggs may help prevent blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks.
– They contain the right kind of fat. One egg contains just 5 grams of fat and only 1.5 grams of that is saturated fat.
