eggs.
In this post, you’ll learn all about how eggs are a great beauty food, but they’re also a great brain food. You’ll also get my 3 favorite ways to eat eggs.
The aesthetic benefits of eggs:
♡ Super food for your hair.
That’s right! You can use egg whites on your hair. They are full of selenium, calcium and potassium to keep your hair beautiful and shiny.
♡ Helps in hair growth.
Eggs are full of biotin that helps hair and nail growth.
♡ Nourish your skin.
It’s loaded with fatty acids that help moisturize your skin from the inside out, strengthen cell membranes, and also produce a healthy natural oil barrier.
♡ Tighten the pores.
The albumin in egg whites can be applied directly to your skin to tighten pores and remove excess oil.
♡ Prevent acne.
It has antibacterial properties that can help with aging skin or acne-prone skin.
The lutein in eggs provides hydration and elasticity to the skin, and the accompanying protein helps repair tissue and maintain skin firmness. Egg yolks in particular are loaded with fatty acids that add moisture to the skin while egg whites contain albumin, a simple protein that tightens pores and removes excess oils. { Across }
Other benefits of eggs:
♡ increases energy.
The vitamin B12 content in eggs can increase your energy levels.
♡ It can help manage weight.
Eggs are satiating and are also a great source of protein. Protein makes you feel fuller for longer and can also help you lose weight while being full of nutrients.
Important tip about TSC: Always keep hard-boiled eggs in the refrigerator. Very easy to grab on your way out the door so you don’t end up at ينتهي outside Through the car in a rage. laughing loudly.
♡ It contains choline.
Many of us don’t get enough choline which is critical for healthy cell membranes and brain signaling. Choline is a neurotransmitter that affects your mood and memory.
♡ Reduce the risk of heart disease.
Eggs raise “good” cholesterol levels, which in turn reduce the risk of heart disease.
♡ Great for eye health.
Lutein and zeaxanthin are antioxidants that reduce the incidence of cataracts and macular degeneration. You should know that egg yolk contains most of these nutrients.
♡ Complete protein.
Eggs are a complete protein which means they contain all the amino acids you’ve probably heard of “the building blocks of our bodies.” { Across }
And therefore. many. Benefits.
Beauty really comes from within which is why I dedicate an entire chapter in my new book Get the fuck out of the sun To glow from the inside out.
Whenever I buy eggs I try to get them at the farmers market. I only want the most organic, pasture-raised, high quality eggs I can find. All things please.
If you are in Austin you must try ال Pete and Jerry eggs. It’s free eggs, all organic from a small farm, and it’s very good. Zaza loves them.
My favorite way to eat eggs is to make them Delicious egg naan salad سلطة. It reminds me of her – we loved Cornish. Otherwise, I and Zaza like to eat it mixed with vegetables and I always cook it avocado oil or Coconut Oil for excess fatty acids.
Another take is Kristin Cavallari’s Loaded Egg Sandwich. You will need:
+ 2 pieces of bread
+ 1-2 tablespoons of mayonnaise
+ 1/2 avocado
+ 2 thin slices of heirloom tomatoes
+ 2 slices prosciutto
+ 2 eggs, very plain or sunny
+ black pepper
+ microgreen
+ hot sauce
directione:
Add a layer of mayonnaise, mayonnaise, tomatoes and prosciutto, then the cooked eggs. Top Standard & Poor’s, baby greens and hot sauce (these recipes make 2 open-sided sandwiches).
Just to go under here… I’m obsessed Yellowbird Habanero Hot Sauce. Eggs just need a little seasoning in my opinion. all they have Flavors Amazing, but Habanero is my favourite. The ingredients are crazy, it’s a Texas company, and they really give your eggs a boost.
It’s made with organic carrots, citrus, and ginger, has low sugar (1g) and low carbs (2g) and I’m just obsessed. As you can probably tell. It’s good for pizza and pasta too.
For Zaza, I also love incorporating eggs into her green pancakes Weekend bite. We add spinach, but here are a few more ideas from Lindsay.
Basic recipe: 1 banana + 2 eggs (that’s it!)
Add-ons: Allspice, nut butter, ground flaxseeds, chia seeds, spinach… Get creative!
directione:
- Mash the bananas in a bowl and beat in the eggs until smooth. Add any additional functionality you want. If you want to add spinach, just put everything in a blender and blend it.
- Warm oil in a frying pan – I use olive oil, coconut oil, grass-fed butter, or avocado oil.
Pour the mixture with a spoon into the skillet. A little tip for making the pancakes thicker and fluffy: Once the batter starts to thicken, add another spoonful on top before flipping to give the pancakes a little extra height. Then flip and cook for another minute or so on the other side.
Are you a fan of eggs? If you’re not, try flax eggs in your bread. Kristin Cavallari has green banana pie recipe That used one and I just love these pancakes.
Happy bread.
S, Lauren
