As many people focus on getting fit and eating healthier to lose weight this January, there has been a lot of discussion about increasing protein intake and choosing whole foods.

As part of the New Year's health goals, eggs have become a popular choice for those aiming for mindful eating. Heart.org highlights eggs as a nutritional powerhouse, noting that with only 78 calories each, they are a great source of protein and vitamins.

"A large egg contains about 6 grams of protein. Eggs also are a good source of other nutrients, including vitamin D (which aids bone health and the immune system) and choline (which helps metabolism and liver function, as well as fetal brain development)."

However, not everyone's over the moon about the emphasis on eggs, but fitness sensation Eddie Abbew has something to say to those people who claim they're experiencing egg fatigue.

In his caption, he wrote: "Eggs are a super food. Find different ways of preparing them because they're important for your long-term health."

Standing in a supermarket aisle, he airs his frustration with repeat complaints: "Eddie, I'm bored of eating eggs for breakfast, what can I eat?"

His 10-word rant left people scratching their heads as he vented: "Does a cow get bored of eating grass all day?" He then told people to "wake up" and stop moaning, encouraging them to find a new recipe they liked that included eggs.

According to BBC Good Food, "both the egg white and yolk are rich in nutrients," with the yolk containing "fat-soluble vitamins, including vitamins A, D and E, as well as fats including essential omega-3 fatty acids" and the "protein is found in the egg white".

They mention that eggs offer several health benefits, including:

  • Being nutritionally dense
  • Providing complete protein
  • Containing choline
  • Potentially benefiting heart health
  • Supporting eye health
  • Helping protect against sarcopenia
  • Aiding in weight management
  • Contributing to optimal body composition
  • Boosting the immune system
  • Having a minimal environmental impact
