Health Benefits of Eggs

Egg benefits include the following:

Eggs and weight loss: An egg has excellent nutritional value and can assist you in losing weight fast. It contains 9 essential amino acids and 6 grams of high quality protein. An egg yolk contains 5 grams of “good fat” and only 1.5 grams of that is saturated fat. It is the only source of natural vitamin D. There are only 86 calories in an egg which makes it a great food for a diet.

Brain, nervous system regulation and prevention of blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks: Eggs are a good source of choline. One egg yolk contains about 300 micrograms of choline. Choline is an important nutrient that converts homocysteine (a molecule responsible for damaging blood vessels) into other safe molecules.

Prevention of cataract and macular degeneration: Eggs are the best source of lutein. Lutein is a carotenoid which helps to prevent age-related cataract and macular degeneration.

Reduced risk of breast cancer: the breast cancer research proved that women who had 6 eggs daily - lowered their risk of breast cancer by 44%

Eggs make your hair grow faster and nails stronger: Due to high sulphur content and minerals and vitamins you can grow longer hair and nails.

Eggs improve cholesterol: New research reveals that moderate egg consumption (2 eggs a day) does not affect your cholesterol level and in fact, can even improve it.
