Spotlight on nutrition
Egg week is all about letting people know just how they can benefit from incorporating eggs more into their daily diets. One of the most nutritious foods that money can buy, eggs are a rich source of vitamins, minerals, proteins and essential fats, all coming from one small but powerful package. With a medium egg containing less than 70 calories, they are an ideal addition to any healthy diet.
