Will you two eggs bacon for breakfast this morning? Perfect! So I ask you for which you will choose varieties of eggs? Basically, organic, omega-3 extra-large? The issue is complicated oddly, is not it?
As you can see every day at the grocery store, there are more categories egg today than ever before. I will therefore review the variety offered on the shelves. But if I want you to remember one thing with this article, it is assured that whatever your choice, you make a healthy choice!

Specialized eggs
As with many foods, egg producers will continue to improve, hence the appearance of eggs called "specialty". Did you know that today, more than a third of eggs sold in grocery stores are eggs in value? Some of them may have a slightly different nutritional value than white eggs classics. You will then be ready to pay a lot more!
The omega-3 eggs
Eggs enriched with omega-3 are a good choice especially for people who do not eat fish. Flaxseed have been added to the cast of the chicken, which justifies the omega-3 eggs laid. It will be remembered that omega-3 plant origin are less assimilated than animal. However, it is worth mentioning that the eggs of hens fed flax seed also will contain omega-3 animal because of a particular metabolism. A serving of two eggs contains 0.8 g of omega-3, which is far from negligible! But personally, I'm not ready to pay more when I can meet my needs omega-3 with fish such as salmon, tuna or mackerel.
Brown eggs
This is a popular myth! It is wrong to believe that the brown shell eggs are healthier than white shelled eggs. There is no difference in nutritional value, flavor or even between the two. The only difference is the breed of the hen that lays the eggs. Here's the perfect example for which we should not always associate that is brown healthier ...
The organic eggs

Since the vast majority of organic products, you should not choose them because they are better for health, but better for the environment. The eggs are unfortunately no exception to the rule! Will you be ready, however, to pay more than $ 3 a dozen?
Chicken eggs released
As their name suggests, these chickens were free range and have enjoyed good living conditions. They can move about the particular area of the house have access to nests and often perches. To date, there is unfortunately no study showing that the nutritional value of eggs is different from that of regular eggs.
The eggs higher in vitamins and minerals (omega-pro)
These eggs contain more vitamins and minerals once again due to the feed given to hens. In addition to flaxseed, we add alfalfa and various plants, which affects the nutritional value of eggs laid. They are interesting especially for people who do not consume ovovégétariennes other animal proteins.
Liquid eggs
You probably know those little cartons of liquid eggs. These products may be of interest to people with cholesterol problems. The cartons contain fewer egg yolks and whites. Result? It contains less fat and cholesterol and many proteins of very good quality. In addition, they are very convenient!
For desserts, you can also opt for mixtures of egg whites. These cartons are highly practical, especially if your recipe calls for 8 egg whites ...
