Which one is best for your health?

Are local chicken eggs better than factory chicken eggs?

To answer this question, nutritionist Bethany Thayer, Director of the Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention at Henry Ford Health System in Detroit (USA), revealed that domestic chicken, industrial chicken or organic chicken does not affect the nutritional value of eggs.

Choose the type of egg you like best.

The nutritional value of eggs can only be affected by the nutritional content of the feed during the chicken's raising process, explains expert Bethany Thayer, according to the New York Post.

According to one study, there may be slight differences in mineral content in eggs depending on the rearing environment.

For example, researchers found that eggs from domestic chickens were higher in magnesium, while organic eggs were lower in phosphorus and zinc.

According to another study, eggs from domestic chickens also have higher levels of beta-carotene. Beta-carotene is not an essential nutrient but is converted by the body into vitamin A, providing many health benefits, according to the medical website Medical News Today.

Even with organic eggs, both Thayer and Jess DeGore, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based nutritionist and diabetes educator , say there's not much of a nutritional difference.

All types of eggs are nutritious, providing protein, vitamins and minerals.

Final Conclusion on Egg Selection

Experts conclude: "No single type of egg is superior in terms of health benefits."

Egg Nutrition Center, It is claimed that there is little difference in nutritional value between factory-raised eggs, local eggs and organic eggs.

According to expert DeGore, the nutritional levels between types of eggs are very different, so choose the type of egg you like best, according to the New York Post.

Expert DeGore emphasizes that all types of eggs are nutritious, providing protein, vitamins and minerals.

Whatever type of egg you buy, make sure you handle it safely, Thayer adds. Store it deep in the refrigerator, avoiding the habit of storing eggs in the refrigerator door. Cook eggs until the white and yolk are set and the internal temperature is 70 degrees Celsius.

Explaining why egg prices vary, Medical News Today explains: The reason is cost. Industrial chickens cost less in labor, food and space, so the price of industrial chicken eggs is the cheapest.
