News India Live, Digital Desk: As soon as the temperature drops in the cold season, our body starts becoming dull and laziness takes over. We want to snuggle under the quilt all day long. But do you know that a small change in your eating habits can keep you so active from within that you forget about winter? We are talking about eggs.
How does eating eggs keep the body warm?
Eggs contain very high-quality protein. In scientific terms, when our body digests protein, a lot of energy and heat is generated in this process. This is called ‘thermic effect’. This is the reason why after eating an egg, you feel warm from inside and the effect of outside air reduces a little.
‘Vitamin D’ compensates for the lack of sunlight
In winter, the sun often remains hidden in the clouds, due to which our body is unable to get Vitamin D. Pain in bones and stiffness of joints starts due to this reason. Eggs are one of the few foods that naturally contain vitamin D. If you eat an egg daily, it helps in keeping your bones strong.
Best fuel to drive away laziness
Eggs also contain vitamin B-12 and omega-3 fatty acids. It keeps your mind alert and drives away that lethargy that we all feel on winter afternoons. It releases energy gradually in the body, making you feel energetic throughout the day.
Immunity and weight balance
It is very important to have strong immunity to avoid cold and cough. Eggs contain zinc and antioxidants which give strength to fight diseases. The best thing is that it keeps the stomach full for a long time, due to which you avoid eating unnecessary fried foods and your weight also remains under control.
Believe me, if you are not a vegetarian, then egg is your best friend this season. Yes, if you have high blood pressure or cholesterol problem, then definitely ask your doctor once before eating the yellow part i.e. the yolk. Otherwise, a simple boiled egg can take your winter diet to a whole new level.
