❌ Myth 2: You Should Avoid Egg Yolks
Some people ignore the yolk and eat only the egg whites, thinking it’s healthier. But by doing that, you’re missing out on the most nutritious part of the egg.
Egg yolks are loaded with vitamin D, B12, selenium, choline, and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which are crucial for brain and eye health.
👉 Verdict: The yolk is not your enemy — it’s a powerhouse of nutrients.
❌ Myth 3: Eating Eggs Every Day Is Too Much
Many Europeans consider that eating eggs every day could be harmful over time.
In fact, eating one to two eggs daily can help keep muscle mass, encourage brain function, and enhance satiety — all important for aging populations across Europe.
👉 Verdict: Daily egg consumption is generally safe unless you have specific health conditions.
❌ Myth 4: Eggs Are Bad for Weight Loss
Some believe eggs are fattening because of their fat content. But that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Eggs are low in calories (about 70–80 kcal each) and high in protein, which maintains you full longer and helps decrease overall calorie intake.
