Boiled eggs, steamed eggs, tomato eggs... Eggs not only have a variety of ways to eat, but also have high nutritional value, making them the top choice on the dining table. Recently, eggs became the focus again, and the related topic # Eating five eggs a week reduces the risk of diabetes and hypertension # caused hot discussion. Experts remind that although eggs are high-quality protein, pursuing any single ingredient is not advisable. The intake of eggs also varies from person to person and needs to be considered in conjunction with the overall dietary structure throughout the day. The reporter noticed that one of the points that this topic has attracted public attention is its ability to reduce the risk of chronic diseases. "Eating more than 5 eggs a week significantly reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes and hypertension by 28% and 32%, respectively!" Tracing back to this conclusion, it actually comes from a study published in the journal Nutrient by the research team of Boston University, but the reporter found that there is another opposite study. A study published by the research team of China Agricultural University in the European Journal of Public Health pointed out that eating too many eggs is not conducive to health, and the weekly intake of eggs should not exceed 6. The conclusions of different literature are not the same. Should we eat 5 or 6 eggs per week? This has become a headache for many people again. Cai Xiaozhen, Director of the Nutrition Department of Provincial Government Hospitals in Jiangsu Province, told reporters that when understanding literature, people often only focus on the conclusion, but the conclusion of the literature has many prerequisites. We generally recommend eating one whole egg a day, but there is no absolute strict limit. If you can get enough protein from other foods, then it's okay not to eat eggs. The protein requirements vary among different populations and disease states. For example, some fitness enthusiasts and athletes have a high demand for protein, which is difficult to meet with regular food. It is also advisable to consume multiple chicken proteins per day; For diabetes patients and kidney patients, it is also good for blood sugar control and kidney protection to replace high-fat meat with eggs every day when other diets remain unchanged. " Cai Xiaozhen introduced that eggs have rich nutritional value and are affordable in price. Among the proteins in nature, the amino acid composition of egg protein is closest to the amino acid pattern of human protein, and it is also the most easily digested and absorbed. Eggs also contain lecithin, rich in fat soluble vitamins and trace elements including vitamins A, D, K, etc., which are crucial for human health. However, it should be noted that from a nutritional perspective, no food is omnipotent. "Egg yolk contains high levels of cholesterol and fat. For patients with hyperlipidemia or hypercholesterolemia, eating one or half a day is sufficient, and specific adjustments need to be made according to the patient's blood lipid level." Dr. Cai Xiaozhen emphasized that our daily diet emphasizes a balanced combination, Food pairing is like a team, where each type of food needs to be reasonably matched in a certain quantity and relationship to maximize its effectiveness. Therefore, do not exaggerate the efficacy of any single food. "A little healthier: Some common questions about eggs: 1. Are plain eggs more nutritious?"? In terms of nutritional value, there is not much difference between domestic eggs and foreign eggs. At most, it may be a difference in taste. Some people may think that foreign eggs have a fishy smell, which is earthy
