Health, Sport and Diet nutrition

People are becoming more and more focused on their health. They are very conscious of the way their diet impacts their well being. Egg albumen is a perfect addition to a balanced diet.

Egg protein is the most effective source of protein, because of its high biological value.

The Biological Value (BV) is a scale of measurement used to determine what percentage of a given nutrient source is utilized by the body. The scale is most frequently applied to protein sources. Biological Value is derived from providing a measure intake of protein, then determining the nitrogen uptake versus nitrogen excretion. The theoretical highest BV of any food source is 100%. In short – BV refers to how well and how quickly your body can actually absorb the protein you consume.

Through feed Marigold (Tagetes erecta L., Asteraceae) lutein (composed of esters of xanthophyll) can be introduced into eggs for better eyesight for elderly people.

Through feed Ω3 & Ω6 Polyunsaturated fatty acids can be introduced in the egg yolk.

Arachidonic acid (ARA) an Ω6 fatty acid is important for body weight development, whereas docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Ω3 fatty acid is required for normal development of the brain, nervous system, and visual acuity.

Many more polyunsaturated fatty acids can be introduced through the feed into the egg yolk.
