Eggs are more than just a cholesterol-containing food. They possess numerous nutritional benefits. This Special Issue will discuss eggs as a source of high-quality protein for individuals across the life spectrum, as a substantial source of choline (a known neurotransmitter involved in cognitive function), and as a source of highly bioavailable lutein and zeaxanthin (two carotenoids well-recognized for their major role in protecting against age-related macular degeneration and cataracts, as well as for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties). Finally, the potential of incorporating eggs for weight loss interventions, due to their low glycemic index and their satiety effects, will also be discussed English Biology (General) http://www.mdpi.com/books/pdfview/book/502 DOAB: download the publication kostenfrei https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/63010 DOAB: description of the publication kostenfrei ZDB-94-OAB ZDB-94-OAB 53797282740006441 61737818980006441 Available DOAB - Directory of Open Access Books (ZDB-94-OAB) https://hbz-network.userservices.exlibrisgroup.com/view/uresolver/49HBZ_NETWORK/openurl?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&rft.mms_id=990229056440206441 DOAB Directory of Open Access Books 49HBZ_NETWORK 990229056440206441 https://hbz-network.userservices.exlibrisgroup.com/view/uresolver/49HBZ_NETWORK/openurl?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&rft.mms_id=990229056440206441 49HBZ_EVH 49HBZ_DUE 49HBZ_FHA 49HBZ_ULB 49HBZ_UBA 49HBZ_UDE 49HBZ_HSN 49HBZ_UBD 49HBZ_FUH 49HBZ_FDO 49HBZ_WUP 49HBZ_HHL 49HBZ_HSD 49HBZ_RTU 49HBZ_ZBS 49HBZ_THK 49HBZ_UBT 49HBZ_RUW 49HBZ_ZBM 49HBZ_FHM 49HBZ_ULM 49HBZ_UBO 49HBZ_PAD 49HBZ_TGA 49HBZ_HSK 53797282720006441 61737818980006441 Available DOAB - Directory of Open Access Books (ZDB-94-OAB) https://hbz-network.userservices.exlibrisgroup.com/view/uresolver/49HBZ_NETWORK/openurl?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&rft.mms_id=990229056440206441 DOAB Directory of Open Access Books 49HBZ_NETWORK 990229056440206441 https://hbz-network.userservices.exlibrisgroup.com/view/uresolver/49HBZ_NETWORK/openurl?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&rft.mms_id=990229056440206441 49HBZ_EVH 49HBZ_DUE 49HBZ_FHA 49HBZ_ULB 49HBZ_UBA 49HBZ_UDE 49HBZ_HSN 49HBZ_UBD 49HBZ_FUH 49HBZ_FDO 49HBZ_WUP 49HBZ_HHL 49HBZ_HSD 49HBZ_RTU 49HBZ_ZBS 49HBZ_THK 49HBZ_UBT 49HBZ_RUW 49HBZ_ZBM 49HBZ_FHM 49HBZ_ULM 49HBZ_UBO 49HBZ_PAD 49HBZ_TGA 49HBZ_HSK
