So, what made the difference?
Eggs are rich in high-quality protein, healthy fats, and essential nutrients like B vitamins (especially B12), iron, and choline. These nutrients play a critical role in energy production at the cellular level. Choline, in particular, supports brain function and helps with neurotransmitter activity, which might explain why I felt mentally sharper and more awake. Unlike sugary breakfast foods that cause blood sugar spikes and crashes, eggs provided a steady source of energy.
Aside from energy, I also noticed that my hunger and cravings decreased. I used to snack frequently between meals, especially on carbs and sweets. But once I started eating eggs consistently, I felt fuller for longer. This is likely due to their protein and fat content, which promote satiety. Because of this, I unintentionally started eating less junk food and even lost a few pounds without trying.
