According to the Daily Mail 2 report, scientists have found that those who eat scrambled, poached or scrambled eggs for breakfast are able to lose about two-thirds of their body weight compared to others.
Researchers at Louisiana State University in the United States conducted a trial on a group of overweight and obese women. They were given a choice of two eggs or bagels for breakfast, which contained the same number of calories and weighed roughly the same. After eight weeks, the researchers compared them and found that those who consumed the eggs lost 65 percent more weight and also saw their waistlines shrink by twice the size of those who consumed the bagels.
Eggs for breakfast help with weight loss because they keep people feeling "full" longer than other foods. So after eating eggs for breakfast, people eat less food next. Obesity expert Nikhil D'Andejar says, "A breakfast of eggs can reduce energy needs for at least 24 hours.
There's no clear conclusion as to why eating eggs tends to make people full, and it's speculated that it has something to do with the fact that it contains a lot of protein.
Deandehar believes the findings are indicative. Eggs are part of breakfast in many cultural traditions, which may be precisely because they help people reduce their energy intake and achieve weight loss.
The UK's Food Standards Agency said that despite the cholesterol in eggs, the saturated fats in cakes, cookies and pies were more detrimental by comparison. They also warned that eggs are only one part of a healthy, balanced diet and that food should be kept as varied as possible.
