They demonized eggs.
They told you the cholesterol and fat were bad for your heart.
But it was a lie.
Eggs are one of the most powerful superfoods on the planet.
Here’s why you should be eating them:
1) Nutrient Dense
Eggs are rich in a diverse array of nutrients.
• Protein
• Healthy fats
• Powerful antioxidants
• Vitamins B2, B12, A, D, E, K
• Minerals like iron, selenium, zinc, calcium, potassium
Eggs are Nature's multivitamin.
2) Weight Management
Eggs are high in protein, unsaturated fat, and low in calories.
This combination keeps you feeling full.
Starting your day with some eggs gets you ahead on your protein goals and eating less throughout the day.
3) Heart Health
Healthy fats from eggs are great for your heart.
The mix of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats:
• Improve cholesterol levels
• Upkeep hormone regulation
• Reduce the risk of heart disease
If you heard eggs are bad for your heart, it was a lie.
5) Eye Health
Two powerful antioxidants, lutein and zeaxanthin, are prevalent in eggs.
And these help protect against age-related vision loss and eye problems.
6) Bone Health
Eggs are also rich in Vitamin D.
And Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, which is crucial for strengthening bones and teeth.
Eating eggs and getting sunlight ensures your Vitamin D levels are in check.
7) Skin Health
Eggs are also high in nutrients that support healthy skin like:
• Zinc
• Vitamin A
• Vitamin E
These nutrients reduce inflammation and, as a byproduct, promote skin health.

I vividly remember all of the anti-cholesterol buzz growing up. It still is there in my subconscious. And I’m sure for many others too
