Are eggs good or bad for you? Properties and myths

Recent studies have confirmed that the presence of vitamins and antioxidants makes eggs an ideal food for preventing diseases such as arteriosclerosis. Obviously, you should consult your doctor before increasing your consumption.

Eggs make you fat . This is another of the most common myths about eggs, probably born in parallel with the cholesterol myth. Eggs don’t actually make you fat: they’re low in calories and high in protein, and are a staple for those who want to lose weight or exercise.
However, the way they’re prepared must also be considered: fried eggs are certainly not a diet food.

You need to wash them . It’s not recommended to wash eggs before cooking or storing them in the refrigerator. Eggshells are porous, allowing particles to penetrate. Washing eggs further weakens the shell. Simply wipe the eggs with a cloth.
