In daily life, it is necessary to ask which food is the most friendly to humans.
I think it should be eggs.
An egg contains about 7 grams of protein, 8 necessary amino acids needed by the human body, and rich in lecithin. At the same time, the protein type and amino acid composition ratio of eggs are perfect, second only to breast milk.
The most important thing is that the price of people is still close to the people, and the production methods can be various,
Therefore, it can be said that eggs are the most expensive food on the planet.
However, in recent years, the egg industry has also begun to "roll".
Native eggs, nutrition is more "superior"?
The so-called native eggs are the eggs born of the native chickens, such as wood chickens, stupid chickens, and chickens that walk on the ground.
Many people believe that the price of eggs is mainly determined by the nutritional value of eggs, and the nutritional value is directly related to the way chickens are raised.
There are currently three ways to raise chickens--- caged chickens, captive chickens and free range chickens.
Since both captive and free-range chickens are kept in captivity, both specify the area of activity of the chickens, but the breeding density is different. Raising 60 chickens per acre of land, the breeding cycle is more than 300 days, which belongs to the full sense of free-range breeding.
Due to the long breeding cycle, the price of chickens will be high, and the price of eggs will also be high.
But in terms of nutrition, there is no essential difference between captivity and stocking, the nutritional content of the two eggs is basically the same, only in terms of nutritional value, there is still no essential difference between the two.
However, native eggs and ordinary eggs, in fact, it is difficult to have standards, and consumers with less experience are easy to be fooled when purchasing.
Native eggs are not actually safe
You know, eggs are a food that is easily infected with bacteria, such as Salmonella and Listeria.
Salmonella can be fatal, listeria if it enters the body of pregnant women, it will also threaten the health of pregnant women and fetuses, the risk of infection with Listeria during pregnancy is 20 times higher than when not pregnant.
In contrast, there is no monitoring at all, and the native chickens that run around foraging for food, at least the modern farms, have strict control and requirements for the feeding environment and health requirements.
At the same time, Taiwan network researchers also found that--- the content of dioxins detected in free-range eggs was 5.7 times that of caged eggs, although the absolute content was still within the acceptable range.
Dioxins are an environmental pollutant produced by combustion, and long-term large intake carries a risk of carcinogenicity.
Compared to the native eggs or foreign eggs, the most important thing is freshness
When buying eggs, there is no need to overemphasize and care about the color of the eggshell, but to pay attention to whether the eggs are fresh. Usually, fresh eggs shake without a noticeable shaking sound.
At the same time, the surface of fresh eggs has a faint fishy smell, while the non-fresh eggs are completely different, it has a distinct water sound when shaking, and some eggs will also emit an unpleasant odor.
Eggs, in the end, can they be counterfeited?
The claim to the "fake egg" has never been broken.
Whether from a technical point of view or from the perspective of making money, the production of fake eggs is not realistic, and the existing counterfeiting methods are too costly and laborious.
The price of eggs itself is not high, and if you want to fake the real thing, it is really a quasi-loss and unprofitable business.
As for the so-called "fake eggs" on the Internet, they are actually due to feed, hens physical abnormalities, etc., resulting in abnormal or unqualified quality eggs, which are not artificial.
In addition to observing whether the eggs are fresh, in order to maximize the nutritional value of the eggs and truly benefit the human body, we also need to pay attention to the way the eggs are cooked.
In clinical opinion, the best way to eat eggs is not to eat eggs, fried or raw, but to boil eggs in white water, which can destroy the antibiotic protein in the eggs and will not damage the beneficial components in the eggs.
