Proteins are the main building blocks of the human body. Getting enough protein in the diet is very important. Well… eggs are an excellent source of protein, with a single large egg containing 6 grams. Eggs contain all the essential amino acids in the right ratios, so our bodies are well equipped to make full use of the protein in them. Eating adequate protein can help with weight loss, increase muscle mass, lower blood pressure and optimise bone health. So Happy Cooking! Cheers!
