Nutritional Highlights of Eggs
Eggs are nutrient-dense and relatively low in calories, with each large egg containing about 70 to 80 calories. Despite their size, they pack a powerful nutritional punch.
Here’s what’s inside each egg:
Complete Protein: Eggs contain all nine essential amino acids your body needs to build and repair muscle tissue.
Healthy Fats: They offer beneficial fats, including omega-3s—especially in eggs from pasture-raised hens or those given omega-3-rich diets.
Vital Vitamins & Minerals: Eggs are rich in vitamins A, D, E, and B12, as well as folate and selenium. These nutrients support immune function, bone health, and cell repair.
Choline: A key nutrient for brain development and function, choline plays a role in memory and mood regulation.
