1. Extremely Nutritious - One large boiled egg consists of vitamins A, B5, B12, B2, B6, D, E and K and phosphorus, selenium, zinc and calcium. Along with the nutritional value, you get around 7 grams of protein and 6 grams of healthy fats.
2. Increase HDL or the Good Cholesterol - HDL or high-density lipoprotein is the good cholesterol that does not cause any adverse effect in the body. With an increased level of HDL, you have less risk of getting heart diseases. Having two eggs per day for one month is a good way to increase HDL by 10%.
3. Contains a Good Amount of Choline - Mostly grouped with the B vitamins, choline is an incredibly important nutrition that cannot be found in most foods. As important as building cell membranes in the brain, it has many other functions. Eggs are a great source to get this nutrient in the body as one boiled egg contains about 100 mg of choline.
