Eat cooked eggs overnight

Only eating egg yolk is better than eating both egg white and egg yolk?
In reality, there is slightly more protein in the egg yolk than in the egg white. However, in an egg, the proportion of egg white is greater than the egg yolk, so the overall protein content is the same.
The difference is that the egg yolk contains a large amount of minerals such as phosphorus, iron, calcium, vitamins like A, D, E, K, and B vitamins, while the egg white hardly contains these substances. However, egg whites are suitable for patients with cardiovascular diseases because they do not contain cholesterol like egg yolks.
Is it good to eat eggs with soy milk?
Many people have the habit of drinking soy milk and eating eggs in the morning to provide energy. However, soy milk contains trypsin inhibitors, which can inhibit human activities, affecting digestion and protein absorption in the body.
According to nutrition experts, if these two foods are combined, the protein in the egg may combine with trypsin in soy milk, impeding the protein decomposition process and reducing the rate of protein absorption in the body.
Drinking tea right after eating eggs
It is a habit of many Vietnamese people to drink tea after meals. Even if you have eggs with rice, you still drink tea to cleanse your mouth.

Therefore, be careful not to make this mistake.
Eating eggs on an empty stomach
Many people eat eggs when they are hungry because eggs can keep them full for a long time. But in reality, when you eat eggs on an empty stomach and consume too many foods with high protein content such as eggs, milk, meat, etc., the protein will be “pressured” to convert into thermal energy and be wasted, thereby unable to exert its nutritional replenishment effect on the body. That’s why you should not maintain this habit to avoid compromising your health.
