Which came first: the chicken or the egg? 😄
Еggs are considered one of the healthiest foods on the planet
They are low-calorie food containing many useful vitamins and minerals such as zinc, calcium, selenium, B vitamins, vitamin A, phosphorus, vitamin D and antioxidants
Eggs are also loaded with protein and healthy fats
Really beneficial!
Eggs are loaded with many nutrients beneficial for your whole body
And at the same time, they are low-calorie and low-carb food
Eggs are packed with healthy fats including omega-3 fatty acids
They contain high-quality protein
Eggs are diet friendly and heart healthy food
A medium-sized egg contains 6-7 grams of high-quality protein
To benefit as much as possible, it is recommended to eat the eggs boiled
And the best way to consume it is to eat the whole egg- the egg white and the yolk
As I mentioned eggs contain calcium
Calcium plays a major role in the construction and maintenance of bones and teeth in the human body
For the production of natural calcium supplement, in the last decades have been used powdered eggshells
Calcium is also extremely important for muscles and nerves
Most of the calcium is in the yolk
According to National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) calcium-rich diet helps build and protect your bones
Did you know that B vitamins and vitamin E contained in the egg are collagen-promoting nutrients
Collagen improves skin and hair
It also reduces wrinkles and dryness
Keeps the skin elastic
As we age, our body naturally starts reducing the production of collagen
Smoking, sun exposure and pollution are some of the reasons that speed up the collagen breakdown
Since collagen is a natural antioxidant, it helps with hair growth and hair regeneration
Neutralizes the free radicals and allows the hair to grow
Collagen also boosts metabolism, help detox, strengthens nails, helps leaky gut and reduces cellulite
As eggs are low in calories they can help you lose weight
A large egg is just about 78 calories
Isn’t that amazing?
Eggs actually help your body burn excess fat
And hey!
This includes belly fat!
So you can burn that by just adding eggs to your daily diet
Eggs also can make you feel fuller for longer which can also help you lose weight easier and faster
The high-protein content can boost your metabolism and help you burn more calories
Eggs are so easy to prepare and add to your daily diet
As a bonus they are super cheap
Boiled eggs are a great way to start your day
You can boil them for 6-7 minutes
And VOILA!
You have a great healthy breakfast!
However, it’s also really important how you combine them
Rather than eating eggs with bacon, eat something healthier
Add some veggies such as red or yellow pepper, spinach, broccoli, cherry tomatoes.
Your plate is going to be so colorful!
The more colors you add the healthier it will be!
Play around and have fun while preparing your healthy breakfast!
