Using oils like soybean, canola, or margarine creates inflammatory substances when heated. These processed oils silently harm the body.

2. Eat only the white.

Many people avoid the yolk for fear of cholesterol, but it’s actually where the most important nutrients are concentrated. Discarding it is wasting the best part of the egg.

3. Overeating.

Although it’s healthy, more isn’t always better. The ideal intake for most adults is between 1 and 2 eggs a day.

4. Pair it with processed foods

Blending it with bacon, sausages or white bread can deny the benefits and overload the body with bad fats and refined flours.

How and when to consume eggs to get the most out of them?

What’s the best time of day?

Breakfast. Beginning the day with eggs helps handle appetite, boosts blood sugar levels, and offers sustained energy.

What is the best cooking method?

  • Boiled Egg: Plain and fat-free. Boil for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Poached egg: Cooked without the shell in hot water, it preserves its nutrients better.
  • Scrambled egg or omelet: Cook it over low heat with a little extra virgin olive oil.
