HEALTH BENEFITS OF EGGS
Eggs are a superfood loaded with essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Due to their rich nutrient profile, they offer a plethora of health benefits, including:
rich source of protein
Eggs are incredibly nutritious as they contain a great amount of protein and essential vitamins, including B2 (riboflavin), B12, D, A, and E, iron, folate, and healthy fats. While protein helps in muscle repair and immune function, other nutrients support skin health, calcium absorption, and overall health.
Packed with amino acids
“Apart from protein, eggs also contain the essential amino acids in the right ratios, making them referred to as a complete protein,” says Dr Archana Batra, a nutritionist and certified diabetes educator. They can help with weight loss, lower blood pressure (BP), boost bone health, and increase muscle mass.
Promotes brain health
“Egg yolks are a source of choline, a nutrient that’s important for brain health,” explains Dr Batra. Choline is associated with reducing inflammation and improving mood, memory, and other brain and nervous system functions.
