1. It’s a nutritious treat.
Despite their small size, eggs are nutrient powerhouses and an essential part of a balanced diet. For thousands of years, societies around the world have relied on these nutritional gems. Eggs are fascinating because they provide nearly every nutrient the human body needs in a form that is easy to digest.
- Vitamins A, B5, B12, D, E, K, B6
- Folate
- Phosphorus
- Selenium
- Calcium
- Zinc
- Six grams of protein
- Five grams of healthy fats
"Eggs are an excellent source of protein (both whites and yolks), unsaturated fats, and essential nutrients like vitamin B6, B12, and vitamin D," explains internal medicine specialist Kurt Hong, MD, of Keck Medicine of USC. Together, these nutrients promote overall health and well-being. Eggs are considered a complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids in optimal ratios. Additionally, the nutrients in eggs are highly bioavailable, meaning the body can easily absorb and utilize them. This makes eggs an ideal choice for people of all ages, from children to seniors, athletes to busy professionals.
