Awesome Food = Eggs!

Eggs are on my list of awesome foods for many reasons. They pack a protein punch, contain antioxidants called carotenes, and provide a high dose of choline. Choline is one of the most important nutrients for healthy brain function. Want a brain boost before school? Have some eggs for breakfast! I like them with a little coconut oil, olive oil, or butter. Choline is also used by the liver to help with the natural detoxification process. That means your body can dispose of potential toxins better. Pasture-raised eggs are best. If your local grocer sells eggs from local farmers, go with those. You're getting a great food and supporting your community!
