Energy

With six grams of the highest quality proteins and 14 key nutrients, eggs provide all the energy you need. They are an excellent nutritious choice for people with an active lifestyle.

In addition to give you energy, your body uses proteins found in eggs for other particular reasons:

• to build and repair body tissues and cells;

• to strengthen hair and nails;

• to develop and maintain muscles in good health;

• to help fight infections;

• to balance body fluids.

According to the Canada’s Food Guide, a healthy and balanced diet must be maintained by eating one to three servings of meat and alternatives per day, depending on age and gender. These servings must include different sources of proteins such as meat, poultry, fish, legumes and eggs.

Living a healthy lifestyle starts with eating right. Eggs are healthy food and can be added to any meal. They are full of proteins to give you lasting energy, and they contain a lot of vitamins and minerals which are key nutrients to keep your body in perfect order.
