Egg is revealed to have more nutritional benefits in many studies presented at Experimental Biology 2009.  Both researchers from University of Connecticut  and University of Kansas Medical Center found that having eggs for breakfast can reduce the consumption of calories throughout the day.  People who eat protein-rich eggs actually feel less hungry and more satisfied.  According to a journal published in 2008’s International Journal of Obesity (1), having eggs for breakfast can help in weight loss.  Researchers from Florida State University also found that eggs do not cause cardiovascular disease.
