Part 1: Health Benefits of Eggs
1.
Describe at least TWO health problems that eggs have been associated with in the
past. Next, describe TWO health benefits of incorporating eggs in the diet.
Concerns about Cholesterol: Eggs, especially the yolk, contain a lot of cholesterol. There has
long been worry that eating eggs frequently may cause certain people to have higher than
normal levels of LDL cholesterol, or the "bad" cholesterol, which could raise their risk of heart
disease.
Salmonella Contamination: Salmonella is a type of bacteria that can result in foodborne
sickness. It has been linked to raw or undercooked eggs. Egg handling and cooking errors
can result in infections and symptoms like fever, diarrhea, and cramping in the abdomen.
Eggs are a very nutrient-dense food that include a variety of vitamins and minerals that are
vital for good health. They are especially high in minerals like selenium and choline, as well as
vitamins B12 and D and high-quality protein. Eggs can efficiently help meet daily nutrient
requirements when included in the diet.
Eggs are a good source of lutein and zeaxanthin, two antioxidants that are good for the health
of the eyes. One of the main causes of vision loss in older persons, age-related macular
degeneration, has been linked to a lower likelihood of developing these chemicals. Over time,
consistent egg eating may help preserve good vision.
2.
Which nutrients are considered to be good sources in eggs? Please discuss at
least five nutrients.
Eggs are a nutritional powerhouse because they include a wide variety of vital nutrients all in
one convenient package. They are an excellent source of protein since they have every
important amino acid needed for tissue growth and repair. Eggs are also among the best food
sources of choline, which is essential for nerve and brain function. They have both vitamin
B12, which is necessary for the synthesis of red blood cells and the health of the nervous
system, and vitamin D, which is important for immune system and bone health. Moreover,
eggs are a good source of the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin, which guard against
cataracts and age-related macular degeneration to maintain eye health. A quick and
nutrient-dense way to promote general health and wellbeing is to include eggs in your diet.

2.
Give a brief summary of your experience preparing the recipe. Below are some
ideas to think about.
●
Was this the first time you made the recipe? If yes, why did you choose this
recipe?
●
What did you think of the recipe? Would you make it again, why or why not?
●
Did you share the finished product with others? If yes, what did they think about
it?
This recipe is something in my household that we do twice a month. We love adding fried egg
to everything, especially on top of rice or fries because of the running yolk. I love this recipe
that brings happiness to my heart. I would do this recipe again because it is very simple to
make on a rush dinner night or something quick. I did share this with my family, and they
loved it as much as I did.
3.
Answer question ‘a’ or ‘b’ below:
a.
Did you modify the original recipe? If yes, what modifications did you make and
why?
b.
If you didn’t modify the original recipe, are there any modifications you would
make next time? If yes, what modifications would you make?
-
The only modification I did was as the rice of the recipe added beef stock instead of
just water. But the instruction for the fried egg was the same.
4.
Before this week, how often did you eat eggs on a weekly basis? Do you think your
consumption of eggs will change after learning more about them from this week's
readings and activity? Why or why not?
I usually have eggs 3–4 times a week and two eggs daily. I think my egg consumption will stay
the same because It is something I enjoy having every time for breakfast.
