Eggs are among the nutrients that keep us full for a long time and play an important role in our bone development. Experts argue that you should eat eggs every day. Incorrect consumption of eggs, which has an important place in the nutrition of children and athletes, increases the risk of diseases such as cancer.
ATTENTION TO ADDED FOODS
We prefer flavoring eggs with different flavors rather than consuming them plain. Although eggs are a protector of health on their own, foods containing saturated fat such as sausage, smoked turkey and pastrami seriously threaten human health.
CONTAINS TOO MUCH FAT AND SODIUM
Adding meats such as bacon and sausage to eggs consumed for breakfast can cause you to get too much fat and sodium. Considering that the daily sodium intake is 2.3000 milligrams, 1 slice of bacon with 115 milligrams corresponds to 5% of the daily intake. Likewise, a plate of sausage containing 790 milligrams of sodium corresponds to 34% of the daily value.
PROCESSED MEAT CAN CAUSE HEART DISEASES
Considering the amount of fat consumed, saturated fats should correspond to a maximum of 10% of our daily calorie amount. Otherwise, a significant increase in the risk of developing heart health and obesity can be observed. Dietitian Angela L. Lago, who reviews the subject, talks about sausage consumption, titled “Unprocessed Red and Processed Meats and the Risk of Coronary Artery Disease”. [Güncel Ateroskleroz Raporlarında yayınlanan] “According to one study, the available evidence has found that processed meat consumption has an impact on the incidence of coronary artery disease.”
It was observed that processed meats, which are defined as group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization, also increase the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s, according to a study conducted in England last year.
YOU CAN GIVE HEALTHY VEGETABLES A CHANCE
So, should eggs be consumed alone all the time? Of course no. At this point, instead of choosing processed meats next to eggs, you can give avocado, whole grain bread and vegetables a chance.
