A balanced diet is important for good health and can help to maintain a healthy body weight and enhance general well being, but if you lead a busy lifestyle it can be difficult to find time to prepare healthy meals when fast food is so much quicker. The good news is that eggs are nature’s fast food inexpensive, quick and easy to cook, versatile and most importantly nutritious.
Eggs are low in calories, containing only 78kcal per medium egg and packed with essential vitamins A, B, D and E; minerals for healthy bones and teeth; and are an excellent source of protein.
Not only that, but eggs are also relatively low in saturated fat, and research has shown that most people can eat an egg a day as part of a healthy, balanced diet, without raising their blood cholesterol levels.
The high protein content of eggs also means that they help you feel fuller for longer, making it easier to lose weight. Research has shown that eating eggs for breakfast is a great slimming aid and can help you to cut calorie intake by up to 415 calories per day. Studies also show that by following a low fat diet that is high in protein foods, such as eggs, instead of the traditional carbohydrates, weight loss can be considerably increased over a six-month period.
