Eat Eggs!

Eggs Are Incredibly Nutritious

Eggs are among the most nutritious foods on the planet.

Egg protein stimulates muscle growth and has been demonstrated to increase muscle protein synthesis in university studies. These effects likely result from the high concentration of the amino acid leucine – approximate 9%. Leucine is the major amino acid responsible for stimulating the synthesis of muscle protein after a meal. The only protein source that contains more leucine than egg is mighty whey.

Eggs also contain various other trace nutrients that are important for health.

Really… eggs are pretty much the perfect food, they contain a little bit of almost every nutrient we need.

If you can get your hands on pastured or Omega-3 enriched eggs, then these are even better. They have more Omega-3s and are much higher in Vitamin A and E
