The cooking method also affects digestion.

If eggs are cooked for too long, the protein can become tougher and harder to digest.

On the other hand, eating them raw is not recommended due to the risk of bacteria.

The most balanced option is usually eggs boiled for about 6 to 7 minutes.

At that point:

the egg white is firm

the yolk remains creamy

the nutrients are better preserved

After boiling, it is recommended to place them in cold water for a few seconds to stop the cooking process.

Tips and recommendations

Preferably eat eggs at breakfast or during the first half of the day.

Avoid combining them with very astringent fruits immediately afterward.

Do not consume them with soy milk in the same meal.

Wait at least one or two hours before drinking tea or coffee.

Combine them with vegetables such as tomatoes or broccoli to improve digestion.

Pair them with whole grains for sustained energy.

Cook eggs for 6 to 7 minutes to better preserve their nutrients.

After breakfast, taking a gentle walk can help improve digestion and metabolism.

Eggs remain one of the most nutritious and versatile foods available. However, the way they are combined with other foods can influence how the body uses their nutrients. With small adjustments in the daily diet, it is possible to improve digestion, absorb minerals better, and enjoy all the benefits that this food can offer.
