The harm and benefits of chicken eggs
Eggs are a very healthy, tasty product, with an almost ideal composition of protein and yolk. It contains many useful substances, including vitamin D, which is called "Silver bullet against coronavirus".
But I do not recommend eating them every day, and not only because of their high calorie content.
Our body treats monotonous food very badly, even if it is as ideal in composition as eggs. Intolerance can develop, and this will give a lot of unpleasant moments when you cannot eat even a piece of food that contains eggs.
So I recommend maximum 2 large eggs (or 3 small ones) a day 2-3 times a week.
How to cook eggs
Eggs must be cooked, and better to cook. So they are better absorbed. And I do not recommend frying anything to anyone because of glycation end products
(the main factor in the aging of the body and a bunch of unpleasant things), therefore scrambled eggs best to avoid or eat on holidays.All these recommendations apply not only to people with diabetes, but also to absolutely healthy people.
As for the harm or benefit of eggs, there is a lot of mutually exclusive research on this subject. As I have already written more than once, there are practically no independent studies, there will definitely be an interest.
In this study, for example, it is written that one egg every day is safe for heart health.e and vessels.
And in this research - that three to four eggs per week increase the risk of cardiovascular disease by 6 percent.
Whom to believe?
