'FORBIDDEN' FOODS THAT ARE HEALTHY FOR YOU

EGGS



Eggs were once banned from healthy diets due to their cholesterol content. Today's research shows that consuming moderate amounts of eggs doesn't effect cholesterol intake at all plus one large egg only has 70 calories and provides a plethora of nutrients, protein, vitamins A ans D ,B vitamins and lutein just to name a few. Adding an egg to your breakfast can help you stay fuller for longer.

Egg yolks are also one of the richest sources of choline, which keeps cholesterol in the egg moving through the bloodstream and doesn't allow it to stack up on arterial walls. Eggs are also rich in minerals, essential amino acids, and other health enhancing carotenoids (namely zeaxanthin and lutein). Plus, eggs contribute to the overall health of your eyes and help fight age-related macular degeneration.

Free range eggs from flax-fed chickens contain greater amounts of healthy omega-3 oils.
