benefits than you realized brightside

will crack the myths behind eggs

especially the egg yolks plus by the end

of this video we'll let you know what

will happen if you eat three eggs a day

but let's set aside the misconceptions

for now imagine how a single cell turned

into a healthy baby chicken for this to

happen an egg must be packed with

life-giving nutrients save that amazing

fact for later use and hit the subscribe

button now turn on the little

notification bell as well so that you'll

videos on the bright side of life first

we'll tell you how an egg is loaded with

amazing stuff it contains calories

protein healthy fats folate calcium zinc

phosphorus selenium and vitamins a b5

b12 b2 d e k and b6 phew

what are we talking about again is this

about multivitamins nope these vitamins

and nutrients can be found in an egg and

it's cheaper than all those pricey

supplements you're not yet sold are you

oh right you've heard that eggs

particularly the yolks contain an insane

amount of cholesterol but did you know

that cholesterol is not entirely bad

according to the website medical news

today it can be found in every cell in

your body gasp yes this waxy and fat

like substance plays an important role

in digestion and vitamin d production it

also helps generate steroid hormones

like testosterone estrogen and cortisol

note that it has two types low density

lipoproteins or ldl also known as bad

cholesterol and high density

lipoproteins or hdl the good cholesterol

the american heart association explains

the difference between the two ldl

contributes to fatty buildups in

arteries or the process known as

arteriosclerosis and increases the risk

for heart attack stroke and peripheral

artery disease on the other hand hdl

knocks out ldl by taking it away from

the arteries and dumping it on the liver

to break it down and annihilate it

completely the american heart

association didn't define hdl in that

street fighter style but you get the

gist so the more hdl and the less sdl

you have the better but what type of

cholesterol will you find in an egg is

it hdl

nope oh no then it's ldl nope again huh

if an egg contains neither good nor bad

cholesterol then what's going on eggs

contain omega-3 fatty acids and dietary

cholesterol but before you throw away

your precious eggs will explain

everything first omega-3 fatty acids are

healthy fats yes the national heart

foundation of australia said that

omega-3 fatty acids can lower your heart

rate and rhythm decrease the risk of

clotting reduce blood pressure levels

improve blood vessel function and delay

the buildup of plaque in coronary

arteries pretty cool huh in the case of

dietary cholesterol several studies

proved that eggs don't increase the risk

of heart disease according to healthline

it seems that both eggs and cholesterol

are victims of bad press but they're

actually good guys well except for ldl

now that we've shown you that eggs are

innocent what are the benefits you can

get from them number one eggs keep you

full and help with weight loss these two

are connected one of the characteristics

of filling foods or foods that satiate

hunger is that they're rich in protein a

large egg contains about 6 grams of high

quality protein which may help you eat

less for several hours after a meal as a

result this helps you lose weight

because you're satiated and can avoid

impromptu trips to the fridge when

you're feeling hungry no offense to

bagel lovers but a study showed that an

egg breakfast enhances weight loss more

than a bagel breakfast

number two eggs improve eye health after

this you'll see egg yolks in a new and

positive light why egg yolks contain

lutein which helps reduce the risk of

age-related macular degeneration and

cataracts it contains zeaxanthin which

protects you from the sun's harmful uv

rays moreover according to the egg

nutrition council yes the council has

spoken eggs can protect your eyes from

retinal damage because they contain

omega-3 fatty acids did we miss any

other important details oh yes eggs are

loaded with vitamin a which protects

your cornea and zinc which improves the

health of your retina and helps you see

better at night number three eggs keep

your bones healthy a study conducted by

the department of food and technology at

hanseo university suggests that egg

yolks wow those yolks are in a roll

improve bone metabolism and prevent the

risk of osteoporosis also whole eggs

contain vitamin d to protect your bones

phosphorus to keep your bones healthy

and calcium to improve the density of

your bones number four eggs prevent iron

deficiency what is iron deficiency and

what does it do to your body this occurs

when you don't have enough iron in your

body and low iron levels can lead to

equally low red blood cells iron is

needed to produce hemoglobin the part of

red blood cells that carries oxygen

throughout the body how can you maintain

the right amount of iron eat eggs yes

they are a source of iron number five

eggs help with brain development in

infant and fetuses eggs aren't only good

for adults but for infants and even

fetuses the choline in eggs is

beneficial for fetal brain development

the yolks can also help to prevent birth

defects during pregnancy vitamin b is

important for the development of the

spinal cord and fetal nervous system it

also helps prevent breast cancer

according to a study so eggs are

essentially food for the brain wow eggs

were really underestimated and wrongly

viewed by many people come to think of

it eggs are not the culprit we should be

looking more closely at the food we

partner eggs with that's swimming in

saturated and trans fats for example

eggs with ham bacon or hot dogs this is

what the national heart foundation of

australia observed and they recommend

matching your eggs with a healthy option

but keep in mind that not all eggs are

the same how can you choose the right

egg this is a tricky one health line

says there are four types of eggs and

they are organized based on where the

hand is raised and fed conventional eggs

the hens are fed grain and their eggs

can be found in supermarkets organic

eggs the chickens are fed organically

and not treated with hormones pastured

eggs the hens are free to roam and eat

natural foods like plants and insects

omega-3 enriched eggs the chicken's feed

is mixed with flax seeds a source of

omega-3 which will you choose we'd love

to hear your opinion on this are you

clueless that's all right because we'll

help you rank the eggs starting from the

least healthy one conventional two

organic

three omega-3 enriched and four pastured

if you can't find the last three then

it's fine to go to your nearest

supermarket to buy eggs should you be

conscious about how you cook your eggs

since there is a standard regarding the

right type of eggs the united states

department of agriculture or usda says

that it's okay to poach bake scramble

hard-boil and fry eggs also make sure

the yolks are firm while cooking how

about the debate between white and brown

eggs which one is healthier is there any

difference between them well are you

familiar with this pattern brown rice

brown sugar so brown eggs are best but

did you know that there are blue or blue

green eggs whoa

going back to our question of brown eggs

or white eggs the truth is that it

doesn't matter brown and white eggs have

the same nutritional value according to

the usda who debunked all previous myths

on this matter let's now tackle our big

question what will happen if you eat

three eggs a day it's now clear that

eggs are good for your health but how

many can you eat in one day what is the

standard or ideal number of eggs a study

from the department of nutritional

sciences at the university of

connecticut revealed that a person who

consumes three eggs a day may experience

more of an increase in good cholesterol

and decrease in bad cholesterol than

someone who eats the same amount of egg

substitute that is so great the uk

national health service says there is no

recommended limit meaning eat all you

can on the other hand the american

journal of clinical nutrition suggests a

maximum of 12 eggs per week the national

heart foundation of australia limits it

to six or seven eggs each week

regardless of the number the message is

clear it is safe and healthy to eat eggs

according to several health authorities

and institutions eggs have been unjustly

demonized for many years whether by

commercialization or poor research we
