To get the most benefit from eggs, they should be eaten boiled.
This advice was given by Russian biologist Irina Lyalina.
An expert explained why boiled eggs are the healthiest in a conversation with Life.ru.
As Lyalina explained, a healthy adult can eat one or two eggs a day.
Athletes, in the absence of contraindications, can consume up to three to four eggs per day.
People watching their cholesterol levels can eat up to 4-5 eggs a week. It is advisable to eat eggs without yolks at night.
The healthiest way to cook eggs is hard-boiled or soft-boiled.
Poached eggs and omelettes, cooked without oil or steamed, are also useful.
Fried eggs in oil are less preferable: harmful substances are formed during frying.
Lyalina also does not recommend eating raw eggs, as this can lead to infection.
If you want maximum benefit, choose boiled eggs or an omelette without oil, the biologist summed up.
