Eggs may be your secret weight-loss weapon.
According to a new study, people who eat two eggs for breakfast lose a lot more weight and have more energy than those who choose bagel breakfasts with the same number of calories.
The two-month long study of 152 obese and overweight people was carried out at Louisiana State University and is published in this month’s International Journal of Obesity
It found the egg eaters lost 65% more weight and had a 6`1% greater reduction in their Body Mass Index than those who eat bagels. And despite fears that eggs would raise cholesterol levels, the study saw no change in cholesterol or triglyceride levels in either of the groups.
Study researchers speculated that protein-rich eggs filled up the participants more than a carb-loaded breakfast, leading them to eat fewer calories throughout the remainder of the day.
