Unearth the Weight Loss Values in an Egg

At the University of Illinois, a new research found that eating high quality protein such as protein found in eggs can help weight loss. An essential amino acid leucine reduces muscle tissue loss, promotes body fat loss and stabilizes blood glucose levels. Two groups of women aged 45 to 57 were put on a 1700 calorie weight loss diets. The first group ate high protein breakfast which had eggs, low fat diary products and lean meat. And the second group had high carbohydrate breakfast. Women who ate rich protein diet showed more weight loss than those on a rich carbohydrate meal. This research finding will help people who are battling with obesity, type2 diabetes, heart disease and other chronic diseases.

Have Egg, stay healthy

Many say no to eggs fearing heart problems while some others think staying away from eggs promote their well being. Eggs are one of nature's most nutritious and versatile foods. Moderate egg consumption should be an integral part of anti-aging diet. Egg contains 200mg cholesterol. Cholesterol is not a fat. It is a waxy, fat like substance needed for maintaining bodily functions. Egg whites are cholesterol free and fat free. And eggs contain the highest quality of proteins you can buy. It is low in sodium and has essential vitamins and minerals. Its amino acids strengthen the body. The American Heart association now recommends an egg a day for healthy living.

More than one egg a day is unhealthy. Egg proteins can also cause allergies in some people. Eggs contain sulfur which can strain your liver and kidneys. The yolk of a single large egg contains 215mg of cholesterol; more than two thirds of the recommended daily value of 300mg. An egg a day can fit in fine if cholesterol from other sources like meat, poultry and diary products is limited.
