Egg Nutrition
Eggs are a good source of protein, perfect for after weight training. They also contain lutein in the yolk which may help preserve vision, vitamin B12 which plays an important role in brain function and DNA synthesis (eggs-pecially important for expecting mothers and developing babies), and selenium which may help protect against some cancers. Bonus: black pepper boosts the turmeric’s anti-inflammatory compounds (found in curry powder). Why not have a crack at this tasty recipe?
