“Eggs are a useful product, this is the product that has the right to be in the diet as a source of high-grade protein, lecithin, which is necessary for the central nervous system, liver, and the renewal of the cellular structure of the skin. Vitamins A, E, and B vitamins are present in the egg, especially in the yolk, ”the nutritionist said.
She explained how much eggs are good for humans.
“A measure is needed here, because the yolk contains saturated fats and including cholesterol. Therefore, approximately 3-4 pieces per week, one egg every other day is a normal amount, ”the expert added.
At the same time, Kruglova pointed out the danger of exceeding the number of eggs in the diet and explained what such a violation could lead to.
“If there is an excess, then you need to look at the whole diet as a whole, because one product is unlikely to change the picture of the diet as a whole. But if there is an excess of animal fats in the diet, there is a risk of lipid and cholesterol metabolism disturbance, ”the nutritionist concluded.
A previously published Sberbank CIB study showed that Russians consume an average of 280 eggs per year, which is 8% higher than normal.
