An egg breeds a life. Eggs are rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, and are high-quality and low-cost animal protein foods. The protein price of 1 gram of eggs is only half of the protein price per gram of pig, beef and mutton. Moreover, the biological value of egg protein is the highest among the main human foods. The digestion and absorption rate of egg protein is more than 90%, while the digestion and absorption rate of other meat protein is generally 75-80%, and the human body of grain protein can only digest and absorb 60-70%. In addition, red heart eggs are generally rich in?-carotene, which has the effect of improving human immunity, anti-free radicals and anti-aging. Egg yolk is rich in lecithin, which is an important part of the human nervous system, and can improve people's memory and prevent Alzheimer's disease. As high-quality, inexpensive and nutritious eggs, they are indispensable consumer goods in people's daily life. The appropriate consumption is: 3-4 per person per day for pregnant women, pregnant women, lactating and severely injured patients; 2-3 per person per day for moderate and severe manual workers and children; 2 per person per day for young and middle-aged, light manual workers and mental workers; 1-2 per person per day for the elderly.

Different eating methods of eggs have different digestion and absorption of nutrition. The digestion and absorption rate of boiled eggs can reach 100, scrambled eggs 97%, tender fried eggs 93%, old fried eggs 81%, boiled water and milk washed eggs 92.5, and raw eggs 30-50%. In addition to the low nutrient digestion and absorption rate of raw eggs, because they have not been treated with high temperature, they will also pose a potential hazard to human health.

Some people worry that eating more eggs will cause hypercholesterolemia. In fact, this is a big misunderstanding. The human liver synthesizes 1-1.2 grams of cholesterol every day, accounting for 85% of the source of cholesterol in the human body. When exogenous cholesterol intake is excessive, the body's own synthesis will be reduced. An egg contains about 280 milligrams of cholesterol. Although eggs contain cholesterol, they also contain lecithin that promotes cholesterol metabolism. Lecithin can emulsify fat and cholesterol, so that cholesterol becomes a substance with a smaller molecular weight and is transported to various tissues through capillaries to be metabolized, so you don't have to worry about eating eggs. Suffering from hypercholesterolemia. An experiment at Missouri State University in the United States is very convincing. The test selected 116 men aged 32-62, 3 months without eating any eggs, blood cholesterol levels. Then each person eats 2 eggs a day for 3 months, and then measures cholesterol. Results There was no significant difference in blood cholesterol content between the two determinations. In addition, there are doctors in foreign countries let patients eat eggs to treat arteriosclerosis, and the effect is better. There is also a survey in our country. Among the elderly over 60 years old, under the condition of normal blood cholesterol concentration, eating 2 eggs per person per day will only increase the amount of blood cholesterol by 2 mg, but the elderly will not suffer from atherosclerosis and brain dementia.
