About Two large eggs
Two large eggs are a versatile, nutrient-dense food commonly featured in cuisines worldwide. Packed with high-quality protein, they provide all nine essential amino acids crucial for muscle repair and overall bodily function. Each egg contains approximately 70 calories and essential vitamins like B12, B6, and D, as well as minerals such as phosphorus and selenium. The yolk is rich in healthy fats, including omega-3s and choline, which supports brain health and metabolism. While eggs are lauded for their nutritional benefits, they do contain cholesterol, with one egg contributing about 185 mg. However, research suggests moderate egg consumption is unlikely to negatively impact heart health for most individuals. Popular in everything from European pastries to Asian rice dishes, eggs shine as a key ingredient in savory and sweet recipes alike, making them a dietary staple across cultures.
