Eggs: Protein that helps build muscle
If eggs aren’t part of your current diet, they should be. Especially if you’re in the gym trying to cut fat and build muscle.
Eggs are high in quality proteins and amino acids, important for protein synthesis.They also contain leucine and essential B-vitamins that aid in muscle hypertrophy.
Eggs are a great food source for athletes because they help maintain blood sugar levels without triggering an abrupt increase in insulin. This helps prevent hunger and can promote weight control.
Once thought to be a disaster food for cholesterol, studies now show that you can safely eat eggs almost every day without affecting blood cholesterol. If it’s still a concern, you can remove the yolks to lower the chances even more.
