🄚 The Incredible Benefits of Eating Eggs Daily – Dr. Eric Berg’s Take

In this insightful video, Dr. Eric Berg, a well-known advocate of healthy ketosis and intermittent fasting, dives into why he personally eatsĀ four eggs a day—and why you might want to consider doing the same.

🧬 Nutritional Powerhouse

Eggs are packed with essential nutrients, including:

  • High-quality protein

  • CholineĀ (vital for brain health)

  • LecithinĀ (supports liver function)

  • VitaminsĀ A, D, E, K2, and B-complex

  • Omega-3 fatty acids

  • CarotenoidsĀ (like lutein and zeaxanthin for eye health)

šŸ” Quality Matters

Dr. Berg emphasizes the importance of choosingĀ organic, pasture-raised eggsĀ over conventional ones. The nutrition profile of an egg is heavily influenced by the chicken’s diet and living conditions.

šŸ³ Cooking Tips

To preserve nutrients:

  • Opt forĀ poached or over-easyĀ eggs.

  • Avoid overcooking, which can destroy carotenoids.

  • If scrambling, do it gently and avoid high heat.

šŸ•’ When to Eat

Interestingly, Dr. Berg doesn’t eat eggs for breakfast. Instead, he includes them in aĀ late lunchĀ as part of his intermittent fasting routine.
