Eggs

Eggs used to have a bad wrap for being high in dietary cholesterol. Eggs are now being embraced for being great sources of healthy protein and nutrients like vitamin D. Why the change? Well research is now showing that the cholesterol in our food has less of an impact on blood cholesterol than we previously thought that it did. And don't just eat egg whites, the yolk has tons of good things in it too that your body needs!

For a quick breakfast top a piece of toast with a sunny side up egg. Or scramble a couple of eggs with some bell pepper, diced ham and a sprinkle of cheese. Or hard boil some eggs and eat one for a morning snack or slice one and put it on top of your salad with lunch.
