Excerpt:
"Not only do eggs contain the highest quality source of protein available but they also contain almost every essential vitamin and mineral needed by humans [Sorry, no vitamin C in eggs. Chickens, unlike humans, can produce their own vitamin C and don't need to get it from the diet.]. In fact, egg protein is of such high quality that it is used as the standard by which other proteins are compared."
Read on for more eye-opening nutritional information about eggs. What was most insightful for me was the fact that egg yolks contain protein and are a natural source of choline. Gotta rethink that "No-Egg Yolks" policy of mine.
