Health Benefits of Eggs
For years we have known that eggs are an excellent source of protein and a solid source of 14 essential nutrients.
Here Are Some Benefits Of Eating Eggs
1. Eggs are an all-natural, real food that is packed with a number of nutrients, including high-quality protein. The quality of egg protein is so high that scientists often use eggs as the standard for measuring the protein quality of other foods.
2. Egg farmers work hard to provide safe, nutritious food while maintaining the highest quality care for their hens. Today’s hens are producing more eggs and living longer due to better health, nutrition and living environment.
3. Egg production today uses fewer resources and produces less waste. A new Egg Industry Center study shows the industry has decreased greenhouse gas emissions by more than 70 percent and uses 32 percent less water over the past 50 years.
4. At an average of just 15 cents apiece, eggs are the most affordable source of high-quality protein.
5. Eggs’ nutrients can help you with weight management, muscle strength, eye health, brain function and having a healthy pregnancy. Particularly important for aiding healthy brain function and pregnancy is choline (pronounced KOH-leen), which is amply present in eggs.
6. Eggs are the perfect choice for breakfast because the protein in eggs provides steady and sustained energy that starts your day off right.
7. Eggs contribute to brain function: Choline also aids the brain function of adults by maintaining the structure of brain cell membranes, and is a key component of the neuro-transmitter that helps relay messages from the brain through nerves to the muscles.
8. Eggs are good for the eyes: Lutein and zeaxanthin, two antioxidants found in egg yolks, help prevent macular degeneration, a leading cause of age-related blindness. Though eggs contain a small amount of these two nutrients, research shows that the lutein from eggs may be more bioavailable than lutein from other food sources.
9. Eggs provide varying amounts of several B vitamins required for the production of energy in the body, such as thiamin, riboflavin, folate, B12 and B6.
10. The protein in eggs provides steady and sustained energy because it does not cause a surge in blood sugar or insulin levels, which can lead to a rebound effect or energy “crash” as blood sugar levels drop.
How to Lose Fat without Losing Your Mind
Learning how to lose fat doesn’t have to feel like a senior level physiology
class anymore. You’re done being flabby and bombarded by the obesity culture, so stop listening to that nonsense and do what really helps people get their bodies where they need to be.
You’re ready to get the concrete answers that lead to a tighter tummy and
fit-lifestyle success, so stop trying to look like exercise models that eat
rabbit food and workout 5 hours a day 6 days a week. It’s not realistic.
The back and forth is exhausting…right? No more! Like a bullet train, results
come quick once all the salesmanship is brushed aside. Get the inside scoop on streamlined modern nutrition methods that keep you slim and healthy vs.
constantly on guard and dealing with hunger.
• Use Reasonable Deficits: Without all the weight loss culture noise
cluttering your mind and your shopping cart, you can get down to brass tacks and do what’s necessary rather than what makes the fitness industry richer.
Reasonable deficits that taper the excess weight off slowly (3-5 lbs. a week
maximum) is not only safe, but you look 10 times better in your after photo and on the beach.
• Use Proven Strategies: Forget the hype. Forget the mass marketing and
advertising. Forget the bias that steals your energy. Use proven strategies from proven sources that show you how to lose fat in half the time with twice the results. Too often folks fall for what’s popular vs. what really gets the job
done over the long haul. Diets don’t work, lifestyle changes do.
• Don’t Play Games: Get off the merry-go-round of weight loss. Your health
isn’t a game. It’s not something to be taken lightly. What you consume on a
daily basis is literally a life and death situation. With each meal, you need to
ask yourself if those nutrients (or the lack thereof) are brining you closer or
farther away from being a healthier person with a healthier physique.

How to Lose Fat in less than 24 hours Healthfully

with you into your busy life and make the process far easier to handle.
1. Morning Cardio + Breakfast: Ideally, five days a week you should wake up and do at least 20 minutes of solid cardio on an empty stomach. Then, directly afterwards break the fast with a good meal that resupplies the body and boosts the metabolism even higher for the rest of the day.
2. High Intensity/Low Volume Training: Resistance training should be intense and quick. Instead of 10 mediocre sets, do 3 with high intensity.
3. Unflinchingly Balanced Meals: Each and every meal, even if it’s a small
snack should have the proper amounts of fat (roughly 10%), protein (30%) and carbohydrates (60%).

5 Tips from Cameron Diaz That`ll Change How You Think About Your Body
Along with her Caribbean-blue eyes and goofy laugh, the actress and former model Cameron Diaz is known for her wide variety of film roles, from There`s Something About Marry and the Shrek series to Being John Malkovich and Vanilla Sky. Now the California beauty can add author to that list.
Diaz along with writer Sandra Bark, have penned a book --- The Body Book: The Law of Hunger, Science of Strength, and other Ways to Love your Amazing Body. It`s not some celebrity`s unrealistic, starvation diet that involves subsisting only on green tea all day, or their grueling workout regimen designed by their three personal trainers that no regular human being could ever follow.
Instead, the book is dedicated to sharing the science of how your body works so you can make better choices when it comes to fitness and nutrition and live a happier, healthy life. Diaz admits that she didn`t eat healthfully in the past. The naturally skinny star could eat whatever she wanted essentially, coasting on winning the genetic lottery. As she says, If you are what you eat, i was a bean burrito with extra cheese and extra sauce, no onions.
But she soon realized that her skin and her energy levels were paying the price. What she learned along the way about her body, fitness and nutrition inspired her to create a book that would inform and empower other women to take care of their bodies. No matter what shape it is, how much you love or hate it, whether it feels tired and worn down or lively and invigorated, she writes, your body is the most precious thing you have.
Check out some of the healthy living tips from her book that are worth adopting.
Wake up with water
After brushing her teeth, Diaz chugs a large bottle of water every morning. It completely wakes up my digestive tract, she said in her january 2013 appearance on The Dr. Oz Show. Then she refills it several times throughout the day and make sure she always has it nearby. According to Diaz, your body needs about 10 cups of water a day to stay hydrated.
Feed your Hunger
Plenty of models and actresses go hungry as an unhealthy way to watch their weight, but not Diaz, who loves good food and lists cooking with family and friends as one of her favorite activities. In her book, Diaz talks about the importance of listening t your body`s hunger cues and quelling it with whole, nutrient-dense food. Hunger is that cue that comes from within you, she said to Dr. Oz. I always liken to a red light on a dashboard on a car that says, I am about to run out of fuel. Diaz recommends always starting the day with a healthy breakfast, such as oatmeal or eggs with chopped vegetables, having a small portion of protein with each meal, and carrying around healthy snacks, such as nuts and fruit, to help you refuel when you need it.
Focus on exercising for the right reasons
Rather than working out to reach a certain number on the scale, Diaz, who breaks a sweat daily, focuses on how exercise makes her feel as her motivation it boost her mood, gives her more energy, and prevents disease. An active, fit body has sharper thinking skills, quicker reflexes, and a stronger immune system than one that i s inactive, she notes.
Sit less and keep moving
Any time you`re in a situation where you have to sit whether at your desk at work or at home watching your favorite TV show do something to break it up and move around. Diaz also suggests squeezing in bouts of exercise to stay active throughout the day, such as standing push-ups off the counter while your bread is toasting or even good old- fashioned jumping jacks. They`re one of the best ways to exert yourself without needing anything other than the ground beneath you, she writes. Try doing 20 to give your heart a little boost in the middle of the day.
Stop comparing yourself to others
Diaz has talked in the press about a quote that really resonated with her: Comparison is brutal assault upon one`s self. It`s so true, she said to Dr. Oz. When you`re comparing yourself against someone else, you`re saying what you are isn`t good enough. Diaz suggests looking at yourself in the mirror with a loving eye. So often we look in the mirror and loathe what we see, she writes, but we should remember that the most important thing is to love what you are and be honest about who you are. Make time to stand in front of the mirror and identify all the different beautiful parts of your body that you love. The more you love your body and give it attention, the more connected you will be with it.
