Did you know that eggs are one of the most nutritious foods available to us?
You might be surprised to learn about the wide range of nutrients, minerals, good fats and protein that is packed into one egg.
In fact, one large egg contains small amounts of almost every vitamin and mineral the human body requires, including vitamin B, E, calcium, iron, potassium, zinc, manganese, folate and more. All of these nutrients are found mostly in the egg yolk, while the egg whites contain only protein. An egg provides 6 to 8 grams of quality protein and is only 70 calories.
