Why Eggs are considered a high-quality protein? I usually add eggs to my breakfast most days. Because I don’t have time to prepare something like meat or fish for breakfast, and I can’t eat them in the morning..so the easiest way to make a protein sauce is to make eggs. Even if you want to make something that can be eaten without eggs, or if you don’t have anything with protein to eat separately, it’s a very easy and convenient thing to boil some eggs 😇
Why are we talking so much about eggs when it comes to a healthy diet? Doctors and nutritionists around the world are currently talking and researching more about eggs than ever before. Eggs are known as a high quality protein. These are some of the main reasons why eggs are considered a high quality protein.
First – Eggs contain all 9 essential amino acids that the human body needs but cannot produce itself. We must obtain these amino acids from outside sources. So, since eggs provide all of these, they are considered a ‘complete protein’.
Secondly – In addition to measuring the quality of a protein source, what you need to look at is the type of protein, protein ratio, and the ability of the body to absorb that protein source. When it comes to the amino acids in eggs, they are made up of a composition that suits all the amino acids our muscles need. (Eggs contain Leucine, which is especially needed to restore muscles.) Therefore, eggs are well digested and absorbed by our body. On average, between 95% – 98% of the protein is digested and absorbed by the body, so our body can absorb almost all of the protein from eggs.. That means that the protein from eggs is wasted much less.
Extra Tip: Eggs are also known as a protein with a High Biological Value (BV), because the proteins in eggs help build our muscle tissue very efficiently.
This is why we buy eggs for their easy access to cheap but high-quality protein. The fact that some people don’t have enough money to eat protein is a common issue that comes up when we talk about protein. So here’s one solution. Don’t forget to boil two eggs for dinner or breakfast…😇
