Eggs With a Brain Boost

New research reports that having an egg for breakfast is more filling than having any other breakfast food, and can help limit your caloric intake for the rest of the day by more than 400 calories.

27/07/05 Gold Circle Farms DHA Omega-3 liquid eggs and Horizon Organic liquid egg whites, have less than half the calories of regular eggs without the fat or cholesterol. The new products are promoted as offering now all of the nutrients of eggs -- minus the fat -- with designer liquid eggs in a carton. The Gold Circle eggs also contain the omega-3 DHA from Martek.

According to Hidden Villa Ranch eggs have long been known as "perfect nutrition" in a shell, because the egg white contains all of the amino acids necessary for proper human nutrition and digestion.

Now new research reports that having an egg for breakfast is more filling than having any other breakfast food, and can help limit your caloric intake for the rest of the day by more than 400 calories. Researchers from The Rochester Center for Obesity Research in Michigan also concluded that eggs have a 50-percent greater satiety index than breakfast cereal or bread.

Organic egg whites are claimed to give you that "fresh from the farm" taste since the eggs are produced without the use of antibiotics, added growth hormones or pesticides. The Gold Circle Farms variety offers the added benefit of Martek DHA, an all-natural vegetarian source of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) omega-3, which has proven health benefits for heart, brain and eye health.

"It's literally breakfast for your brain and waistline," says William Sears, M.D. and author of "The Family Nutrition Book." "Eggs enriched with DHA are one of the easiest and most inexpensive ways to get omega-3 and protein into your diet. You'll be more alert and you'll end up eating less junk food throughout the day."
