Ten questions from experts explaining egg nutrition

1. How to eat the most nutritious eggs?

Eggs are eaten in a variety of ways. In regards to nutrient absorption and digestibility, 100% boiled eggs, 97% scrambled eggs, 98% fried tenders, 81.1% old fry, 92.5% boiled water, milk, and eggs. Raw food is 30%-50%. In this regard, boiled eggs are the best way to eat, but pay attention to slowly, otherwise it will affect absorption and digestion.

Note: tea eggs should be eaten less, because the tea contains acidified substances, combined with the iron in the eggs, will stimulate the stomach, affecting the digestive function of the gastrointestinal.

2. How are people eating eggs differently in different age groups?

Although boiled eggs are the most nutritious, boiled eggs are less digestible for children who do not have adequate digestive function.

It is best for infants to eat egg yolk from boiled eggs, grind them into powder, and add water or milk to eat.

As far as children are concerned, the practice of eggs should be varied and the tastes must be changed in order to arouse their appetite.

For young children, you can eat steamed egg soup, egg soup, water egg and fried poached eggs. When you need to eat a liquid diet, you can use milk or soy milk to flush eggs.

Slightly larger children can eat scrambled eggs, egg dumplings, gold hook rolls, crab eggs and so on.

3. What should you watch for boiled eggs?

Boiled eggs are one of the most common ways to eat, but if you do not cook, you will often make the egg white and the yolk unfamiliar; or overcooked, boiled the egg, and the egg yolk is very hard, which is not conducive to digestion absorb.

The correct method of cooking is to put the eggs in a cold water pot and raise them to a low temperature. After boiling, cook for 2 minutes. After a ceasefire, soak for 5 minutes. The egg that is cooked out of the egg is tender and the egg yolk is solidified.

According to nutritionists, eggs in different boiling times have different digestive time in the human body: “3 minutes of eggs” are micro-cooked eggs, which are easily digested and take about 1 hour and 30 minutes; “5 minutes” eggs are half-cooked. Eggs, digested in the human body for about 2 hours; eggs boiled for too long, the human body to digest 3 hours 15 minutes.

The "5-minute egg" is not only soft and tender, but also has a rich aroma and is beneficial to human nutrition. The American medical profession has published a research report that 24 adults eat two and a half cooked eggs each day. Six weeks later, blood lipids did not increase, and good cholesterol (HDL), which is good for the human body, increased by 10%.

4. How much is it best to eat one egg a day?

Eggs are high-protein foods. If they are eaten too much, they can lead to an increase in metabolites and increase the burden on the kidneys. In general, children and the elderly are a day, adolescents and adults are more suitable each day.

5. What nutrients do eggs have in the end?

protein

Eggs are rich in high-quality protein, containing 12.7 grams of protein per 100 grams of eggs. The protein contained in two eggs is roughly equivalent to 3 two-fish or lean protein. The digestibility of egg protein is also highest in milk, pork, beef, and rice.

Methionine is particularly rich in eggs, and both cereals and beans lack this essential amino acid. Therefore, mixing eggs with grains or legumes can increase the bioavailability of the latter two.

fat

Each kilogram of eggs containing fat 11.6 grams, mostly concentrated in the yolk, with unsaturated fatty acids, fat melted milk, easily absorbed by the body.

Other micronutrients

Eggs also have other important micronutrients, such as potassium, sodium, magnesium, and phosphorus. In particular, the iron in egg yolks amounts to 7 mg/100 g. Baby food eggs can supplement the lack of iron in milk. Phosphorus is abundant in eggs, but calcium is relatively insufficient, so feeding infants with milk and eggs can complement each other. The content of vitamins A, B2, B6, D, E and biotin in eggs is also very rich. Especially in egg yolk, vitamins A, D and E and fats are easily dissolved and absorbed by the body. However, the content of vitamin C in eggs is relatively small, and care should be taken in conjunction with foods rich in vitamin C.

6. Who is more nutritious for protein and egg yolk?

Proteins of egg yolk and protein are high quality proteins and have high digestibility. However, egg yolk and other protein nutrients are quite different. Egg albumin is the main protein; egg yolk is rich in fat, vitamins and trace elements, especially iron, phosphorus and Vitamins A, D, E, and B are rich in content.

7. Some people say that raw eggs are more nutritious. Is this true?

wrong! Eggs are susceptible to Salmonella and other pathogenic microorganisms. Raw foods are prone to digestive diseases. Raw egg white contains avidin and antitrypsin, which interfere with the breakdown and absorption of proteins and biotin. On the contrary, the protein structure of cooked eggs changes from dense to loose and is easily digested and absorbed by the body. Of course, after overheating, excessive protein coagulation is also not conducive to digestion and absorption. As for those “groomed eggs” that have hatched but have not hatched chickens, they are even less hygienic.

8. Is it better if the mothers eat eggs?

No. Maternal labor in the delivery process of physical exertion, digestion and absorption function weakened, liver detoxification function decreased, a large number of eating eggs, will lead to hepatic and renal burden, causing adverse consequences. Ingestion of too much protein, but also in the intestine produce a large number of ammonia, hydroxyl, phenol and other chemical substances, a great poison to the human body, prone to abdominal swelling, nausea, dizziness, limb weakness, coma and other symptoms, resulting in "protein poisoning Syndrome." Protein intake should be calculated based on the body's ability to digest and absorb proteins. In general, maternal eating about 3 eggs a day is enough.

9. I heard that eating eggs can lead to high cholesterol. Is this correct?

wrong. Because the egg yolk contains a rich lecithin, it is a powerful emulsifier, can make cholesterol and fat particles become very fine, smooth through the blood vessel wall is fully utilized by cells, thereby reducing blood cholesterol. And lecithin in the egg yolk can be released after the digestion of choline, into the blood and further synthesis of acetylcholine, is the main substance of neurotransmitters, can improve brain function and enhance memory.

10. Is high iodine and high zinc eggs good for human health?

The so-called high iodine, high zinc eggs, mostly zinc, iodine, iron and other trace elements added to the chicken feed, chickens eat these feeds, the eggs produced in the corresponding trace elements in the content than ordinary eggs have increased Now. However, this type of egg is only suitable for a small group of people. It cannot be eaten indiscriminately. If you ingest too much trace elements, it is harmful to humans. For example, more iodine in the human body can cause a series of symptoms of the nervous system. However, if the content of zinc in the body exceeds a certain level, calcium and iron are likely to be lacking.
