5 Egg Myths Debunked: What You Really Need to Know
When it comes to eggs, there’s no shortage of myths that people believe. From the color of the shell to questions about nutrition, it’s time to crack open the truth. Here are five of the most common egg myths — debunked!
1. Brown Eggs Are Healthier Than White Eggs
False! The color of an eggshell simply depends on the breed of the hen. Brown and white eggs have the same nutritional value — it’s freshness and handling that matter.
2. Eggs Are Bad for Cholesterol
Outdated science. Eggs do contain cholesterol, but studies show that eating eggs does not significantly raise blood cholesterol levels for most people. In fact, eggs are packed with protein, vitamins, and healthy fats.
3. Washing Eggs Makes Them Unsafe
Not true if done correctly. Commercial farms properly clean and sanitize eggs before packing. Storing them in the fridge ensures freshness and safety.
4. Egg Yolks Are Unhealthy
Wrong again! Yolks are rich in nutrients like Vitamin D, iron, and choline (important for brain health). Unless you’re on a restricted diet, the yolk is your friend.
5. Local Eggs Aren’t as Safe as Imported Eggs
Absolutely false. Local eggs are often safer and fresher because they haven’t spent weeks in storage or traveling overseas. That’s the benefit of buying Bahamian.
