Eggs belong on the shortlist of superfoods. Eggs are loaded with high quality protein and many other nutrients. For those involved in resistance training, egg protein is particularly valuable for increasing protein synthesis. A recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that this is even more true if the whole egg is consumed rather than just the egg whites. Egg yolks were once villainized for their high cholesterol content. We now know that dietary cholesterol does not pose a health risk for most people.
