In many homes, eggs are a staple. They can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Although it has been known for years that they provide the body with many essential components for proper functioning, some people consciously give them up, thinking they are not as healthy as they might seem. Is this the case?
Eggs for everyone
"For years, many people avoided eggs, influenced by the dietary myth about their harmfulness," began their Instagram post by the book author and nutrition expert Karol Wyszomirski and Dr. Magdalena Cubała. However, the experts decided to dispel all doubts about these products once and for all. To this end, they recorded a video in which they discussed the benefits of consuming them.
- The idea that they are unhealthy is highly debatable, as they contain a lot of nutrients—vitamin B1, vitamin B2, and anti-inflammatory palmitoylethanolamide," admitted Dr. Cubała.
Interestingly, the specialist also emphasized that eggs do not impact cholesterol levels as much as was previously thought.
- We always blamed eggs for this. Now it turns out that studies indicate that even diabetics can eat six to twelve eggs a week.
Which eggs to choose?
When looking for eggs in the store, you might be surprised by the variety available on the market. They differ not only in price but also in production method. Karol Wyszomirski and Dr. Magdalena Cubała, however, recommend choosing products from a specific source.
"When choosing eggs, remember to get the best quality—preferably straight from an organic farm."
