Egg - Another Urban Health Myth Dispelled

Contrary to the urban health myth of needing to restrict your egg intake to two a week, a study by the Harvard School of Public Health found that there is no significant link between eating eggs and developing cardiovascular disease in healthy individuals. The 'devil' is in those saturated fats and trans fats found in pastries, snack and processed foods - or any foods containing hydrogenated oils that raise blood cholesterol levels!

Egg protein is second only to mother's milk as the ideal for human nutrition. Eggs contain all nine essential amino acids, making them the most perfect natural protein food for human nutrition, and they are the standard by which all other proteins are measured. 

Eggs are also a good source for B-12, vitamin E, riboflavin, folic acid, calcium, zinc, iron, fluorine, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, sodium, and sulfur as well as essential fatty acids.  And they are only 75 calories!
 
Many nutritionists say that making one egg three times per week a part of your food plan is a good thing.

Do pastured hens produce more nutritious eggs?
Experiments have shown that range-roaming, grass-eating, antibiotic and steroid free hens produce more nutritious eggs than cage-raised hens. Eggs from pastured, grass-fed hens contain up to 20 times more healthy omega-3 fatty acids than their long-lost space-restricted and antibiotic-pumped sisters, the 'factory hens.'  The high level of omega-3 leads to a 20 percent increase in serotonin and dopamine levels in us.  These are the chemicals in our brain that regulate mood and emotion.  Happy! Happy!

And free-range eggs have 10 percent less fat, 40 percent more vitamin A, and 34 percent less cholesterol.

Chewing the Fat - How you doin'? Write Our Lady.

Dear OLofWL: Boy, did I get myself into trouble. I started baking holiday cookies for the kids - of course - not for me! I really love the batter, more than the actual cookie, and it seems that more of the batter went into me than onto the tray. I realized that when I cook, especially bake, I taste and taste and taste my way through it. Any suggestions on how to bake without doing this? ~ Dough Girl Kate, MS

Dear Dough Girl, I can totally relate. I have issues with batter myself. My good friend told me to chew gum while cooking. It works for her. Hopefully, it will work for you and me as well. Let us know. Happy Holidays!~ OLofWL
