Don’t Buy Another Egg Until You Read THIS
I hope you had a wonderful Easter holiday yesterday with your family.
If you’re like a lot of folks, your fridge is now FILLED with eggs.
If you’re hesitant about eating them because of their cholesterol content, don’t be.
Because despite the bad rap the mainstream has given eggs, they’re one of nature’s PERFECT foods.
In fact, the ACTUAL science says the more, the better!
But not all eggs are created equal.
Eggs cost a fortune these days. So, to get the MOST bang for your egg buck, look for THIS on the label when you pick up your next dozen.
The mainstream’s smear campaign against eggs convinced many folks to give them up for good. But if you’re one of them, it’s time to flip the script and start eating them DAILY.
You see, despite the rumors about eggs harming your heart, it’s actually the exact OPPOSITE. In fact, research has found as long as you eat ENOUGH of them, they’re BENEFICIAL for heart health.
The truth is eggs are BRIMMING with good-for-you nutrients.
Protein: Eggs are a complete source of protein. That means they contain all the essential amino acids your body needs. And because they’re in a form your body can absorb, they’re fantastic for boosting muscle mass and lowering blood pressure.
Choline: Eggs are an excellent source of the essential nutrient choline. This vital compound supports cellular growth and metabolism. And choline is necessary for a healthy brain and nervous system.
Iron: Eggs are a good source of iron. This critical mineral is an essential part of the red blood cells that move oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your organs and tissues. Iron fights fatigue and helps create the “feel good” hormone serotonin.
Vitamin D: Eggs are one of the few foods that provide you with vitamin D. Most of us get too little of this critical hormone. And you’re especially at risk if you’re a senior. Vitamin D is vital for good health from head to toe supporting cognitive, heart, bone, and gut health.
It’s hard to OVERSTATE how important vitamin D is. But it turns out some eggs have MORE of this vital nutrient than others.
When you grab your next carton of eggs, be sure they come from free-range chickens. Recent research revealed that they have HIGHER levels of vitamin D.
And we’re not talking about a bit more. Chickens raised outdoors have a stunning 6 times MORE vitamin D than indoor cluckers.
And I bet you can guess why. Yes… SUNSHINE, my friend.
As you know, your body synthesizes vitamin D from sunlight. And scientists say the same process appears to occur in animals too.
But it’s not JUST D alone that makes free-range eggs the best bang for your buck. Past studies have found they’re ALSO higher in…
- omega-3s
- vitamin E
- beta carotene
When you’re checking that label, ALSO look for the word “organic” and a Certified Humane seal. That way, you can be sure your eggs didn’t come from a factory farm.
It’s simple, a healthier and happier chicken means better eggs.
P.S. For MORE on the many benefits of vitamin D (including the reason why folks with asthma should be sure they’re getting enough), see my earlier report HERE.
