Introduction Eggs, also known as chicken eggs or chicken eggs, are eggs laid by hens. They have a hard shell on the outside and an air chamber, egg white and yolk on the inside. They are rich in cholesterol and nutrients. One egg weighs about 50 grams and contains 7 grams of protein. The amino acid ratio of egg protein is very suitable for human physiological needs and is easily absorbed by the body. The utilization rate is as high as 98% and the nutritional value is very high. It is one of the foods commonly consumed by humans.
Nutritional value of eggs Eggs are also called chicken eggs. The nutritional value of eggs is high in protein, rich in amino acids, and abundant in vitamins. Eggs have the effects of nourishing the lungs and blood, nourishing yin and moistening dryness. Eggs can be cooked in scrambled eggs, fried eggs, osmanthus eggs, seafood eggs, steamed eggs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, brown sugar eggs, eggs stewed with milk, herb cream eggs, egg pig's trotter with ginger vinegar, and egg tea. The efficacy and role of eggs Every 100 grams of eggs contains 12.8 grams of protein, mainly ovalbumin and ovomucoid, which contain 8 essential amino acids for the human body and are very similar to the composition of human protein. The absorption rate of egg protein by the human body can be as high as 98%. Every 100 grams of eggs contains 11-15 grams of fat, which is mainly concentrated in the yolk and is also very easy to be digested and absorbed by the human body. The yolk is rich in lecithin, sterols, yolk, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, vitamin D and B vitamins. These ingredients are very beneficial to enhancing the function of the nervous system. Therefore, eggs are also a good brain-building food.
Eggs also contain other important micronutrients, such as potassium, sodium, magnesium, and especially 7 mg/100 g of iron in the yolk. Eggs are rich in phosphorus, but relatively deficient in calcium, so eating milk and eggs together can complement each other's nutrition. Eggs are also rich in vitamins A and B.
Eggs are sweet and neutral in nature. They belong to the spleen and stomach meridians. They can nourish the lungs and blood, nourish yin and moisten dryness. They are used for deficiency of qi and blood, thirst due to fever, restless fetus, etc. They are a common food to support the positive energy. They can nourish yin and blood, relieve restlessness and calm the mind, and nourish the spleen and stomach. They are used for reduced milk caused by blood deficiency, or dizziness, night blindness; physical weakness after illness, malnutrition; deficiency of yin and blood, insomnia, irritability, palpitations; damage to the yin of the lungs and stomach, loss of voice and sore throat, or vomiting, etc.
Eggs can dispel heat, calm the mind, stabilize the fetus, relieve itching, and stop dysentery. Cook with vinegar to treat chronic dysentery and postpartum dysentery. Fry eggs until dry to stop malnutrition and genital sores. Mix with beans and drink with wine to treat paralysis caused by wind evil. Soak eggs in vinegar until they are rotten, and apply to blemishes. Mix with candles and eat to treat tinnitus and deafness. Fry with wax to stop fever in children.

It is suitable for most people, and is an ideal food for infants, pregnant women, women who have just given birth, and patients. Most people can eat no more than 5 eggs a day. From a nutritional point of view, in order to ensure a balanced diet, meet the needs of the body, and avoid overnutrition, it is generally appropriate for the elderly to eat 1-2 eggs a day. Young and middle-aged people, those who engage in mental work or light physical work, can eat 2 eggs a day; those who engage in heavy physical work and consume more nutrients can eat 2-3 eggs a day; children and adolescents should also eat 2-3 eggs a day because of their growth and fast metabolism. Pregnant women, women who have just given birth, nursing mothers, the weak, and patients who have undergone major surgery need to increase their high-quality protein and can eat 3-4 eggs a day, but not too much. Side effects and contraindications of eggs Eggs and soy milk are different. Three little-known taboos for eating eggs <br /> Eggs cannot be cooked with MSG. I believe many housewives already know this. But you may not know that eggs cannot be eaten with the following three foods! Come and have a look!
1. Don’t eat sugar immediately after eating eggs <br /> In many places, people have the habit of eating sugar-coated poached eggs. In fact, that will cause the amino acids in the egg protein to form a combination of fructose-lysine. This substance is not easily absorbed by the human body, so it will have adverse effects on health.

2. Do not drink soy milk immediately after eating eggs <br /> Every morning, mothers will carefully prepare breakfast for their children. They hope that their children can get enough nutrition in the morning. Therefore, many mothers will add egg flowers into soy milk. Or let the children drink soy milk to quench their thirst after eating eggs. In fact, drinking soy milk alone, which has a strong tonic effect, contains a special substance called trypsin, which combines with the ovalbumin in egg white, causing the loss of nutrients and reducing the nutritional value of both.
3. Do not eat goose meat or rabbit meat immediately after eating eggs . <br /> Eggs should not be eaten with rabbit meat, goose meat or other meats.
