Why are Eggs Good for You?

  • They are rich in high quality proteins, vitamins, minerals, and good fat, and therefore they are considered one of the most nutritious foods you can get.
  • Each egg has 77 calories, 6 grams of protein, and 5 grams of fat. It also contains 9 essential amino acids, which are high in vitamins and minerals and nutrients.
  • Since eggs have a strong impact on you feeling full, adding them to your regular menu can help you lose weight.
  • Eggs are full of antioxidants, especially lutein and zeaxanthin, both of which help to substantially lower the risk of age-related eye disorders.
  • Eggs actually raise good cholesterol (HDL) and change your LDL from small and dense (the bad version) to large (mostly harmless). Multiple studies confirm that there is no connection between eggs and heart disease or stroke.

How Many Eggs to Eat a Day?

Multiple research shows that up to three eggs a day is safe for a healthy adult. While there are no studies to prove that more than three eggs a day could be harmful, the decision is up to you, but as is the case with most food, moderation is probably the best way to go.
