6 Egg in a healthy diet Literature review of the association between dietary intake of eggs and disease risk in humans made by DTU National Food Institute Conclusion: up to 7 eggs/week does not increase the risk for heart disease in a healthy population. Nutrition research Protein - satiety animal protein versus plant protein Cholesterol from eggs 6

7 Protein Support growth and maintenance of bones, muscles and tissues More satisfying than carbohydrates loose and maintain weight Maintaining a healthy weight building muscles 7

8 Dietary protein Dietary amino acids should be treated as individual nutrients digestible or bioavailable animo acids in food tables on an individual amino acid basis A new protein quality mesasure DIAAS = Digestible indispensable amino acid score. Damage from processing: Use reactive rather than total lysine contents lysine availability Dietary protein quality evaluation in human nutrition FAO Food and Nutrition Paper 92
