For many fitness and weight loss friends, eggs are a better fitness and weight loss food. They are very rich in protein and other nutrients and are not very high in calories. And the egg yolk contains an element called lecithin, which is an emulsifier that can emulsify fat cholesterol into very small particles, and then excrete it from the blood vessels for absorption and use by the body.
But the way to eat eggs is also particular, so what should you pay attention to when eating eggs? There are four main points, which will be explained one by one below.
1. Do not cook with sugar
If eggs are cooked together with sugar, the amino acids in the egg protein will form fructosyl lysine conjugates. The combined substance is very difficult to be absorbed by the human body, and will accumulate in the intestines and stomach of the body. This accumulation will only make your lower abdomen become bigger and bigger.
2. Don’t eat undercooked eggs
Eggs contain avidin, which affects the absorption of biotin in food and causes symptoms such as loss of appetite, general weakness, and muscle pain. The antitrypsin in eggs affects protein digestion and absorption. These two substances in undercooked eggs have not been decomposed, so it is difficult to digest and absorb the eggs eaten, which can lead to loss of appetite and indigestion. If protein accumulates in large amounts, it will be converted into nasty fat. Therefore, eggs must be cooked before eating.
3. Don’t eat more than 2 eggs a day
For ordinary people, especially those who are losing weight, eating more than 2 eggs a day can easily lead to overnutrition. Eggs contain a lot of cholesterol. Eating too many eggs will greatly increase the cholesterol intake and cause excessive blood cholesterol levels. High, leading to obesity. Originally, eggs are eaten to supplement the body's necessary protein. If eaten too much, it will cause overnutrition and gradually become fat.
Of course, for those who are working out and building muscle, eating eggs can increase protein intake.If you eat a lot, you will naturally eat more than 2 eggs a day. For intermediate and advanced bodybuilders, it will be more than 10 eggs a day, and some even more. Of course, in this case, the yolk is usually removed. On the one hand, it ensures protein supplementation, and on the other hand, it avoids excessive cholesterol intake through the yolk.
4. Do not eat with soy milk
Eating eggs and soy milk together will reduce the body's absorption of protein. Soy milk contains trypsin inhibitors, which can inhibit the activity of human proteases and affect the digestion and absorption of proteins in the human body. The egg whites of eggs contain sticky proteins, which can combine with the trypsin in soy milk to hinder the decomposition of proteins. Reduce the body's absorption of protein. Over time, it will accumulate into fat, making you fatter and fatter.
