Another reason to eat protein...The Egg Vs Bagel
I really like this website check it out. They have great tips on eating healthy and doing
thing to keep your body feeling young.
Below is another reason for us to eat our protein versus a bagel (or carb). RealAge live life to your youngest http://www.realage.com/ct/my-realage/ The Good Egg Here's some welcome news for breakfast lovers: Eggs may help reduce your weight.
Eggs already have been reinstated as a health food (the major Nurses' Health Study cleared eggs of upping heart attack and stroke risk). Now there's evidence that people who scramble, boil, or poach one for breakfast -- versus eating a bagel with the same number of calories -- bypass junk-food cravings and eat fewer calories for at least 24 hours, without even trying.
Thanks to what turned out to be a bad cholesterol rap, you may have avoided eggs for years. But eggs have always been a good source of nutrients and protein. And for reasons that aren't completely clear, it turns out that they make the body feel fuller longer. In one study, people with weight problems who started the day with an egg were still eating fewer calories than normal by lunch the following day. You know that line about "the incredible, edible . . ."? Looks like the jingle writer had a clue.

I guess that is why my grandfather ate 2 eggs, sunnyside up, every morning for almost a century! LOL. I wish I could handle eggs...I still get sick on them- no matter how I cook them. Hopefully soon!
