Egg Nutrition

Chicken egg is amazing! It is rich in nutrient, containing a variety of 13 vitamins for a total of only 70 calories per egg. It is high on protein, an essential nutrient that builds and repairs muscles as well as makes hormones and enzymes. Your body can’t produce protein, you need to get it from an external source and chicken egg is an excellent source of it!
