Scientific research has clearly demonstrated specific benefits of eggs during all stages of the life span, from the foetus, through childhood, adolescence and into old age. Eggs have shifted from a “health risk” to “health recommendation” as a valuable part of a healthy eating plan. Making eggs part of your healthy eating plan will result in many health benefits such as the building of muscle, developing strong bones & teeth, brain development, eye health, preventing birth defects and helping with weight loss.
