Eggs are fairly high in quality animal protein and contain all the essential amino acids

We may never know what came first between the chicken or the egg but we know there are many reasons to make eggs an essential part of our diet. They have been a dietary staple since time immemorial and have continued to be in our menus and meals. Good for adults and kids, eggs provide an essential source of protein, calcium and several vitamins and nutrients for humans. They are rich sources of selenium, vitamin D, B6, B12 and minerals such as zinc, iron and copper. Whether you like hard-boiled eggs, omelettes or deviled eggs, you will discover a wide selection of eggs from various Zambian suppliers.

Eggs are among the most nutritious foods on the planet. A whole egg contains all the nutrients required to turn a single cell into a baby chicken. A single large boiled egg contains

  • Vitamin A: 6% of the RDA
  • Folate: 5% of the RDA
  • Vitamin B5: 7% of the RDA
  • Vitamin B12: 9% of the RDA
  • Vitamin B2: 15% of the RDA
  • Phosphorus: 9% of the RDA
  • Selenium: 22% of the RDA

In fact, eggs are pretty much the perfect food. They contain a little bit of almost every nutrient you need. If you can get your hands on pastured or omega-3 enriched eggs, these are even better. They contain higher amounts of omega-3 fat and are much higher in vitamin A and E (2, 3).

Whole eggs are among the most nutritious foods on the planet, containing a little bit of almost every nutrient you need. Omega-3 enriched and/or pastured eggs are even healthier.
