Eggs
What is this food?
Whole duck egg (whole egg), a rich protein food used in many meals and snacks.
Why it matters to health
Duck eggs provide protein to help build and repair body tissues, and they also contain fats that support satiety. However, they’re also higher in saturated fat and cholesterol, and they can contribute to sodium depending on how they’re cooked (e.g., with added salt). For most people, eggs can fit well in a balanced eating pattern when portions are right and you vary your protein sources. In a day with 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks, eggs work best as part of your protein rotation rather than the only protein you eat daily.
Healthier tips
- Pair 1 egg with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., tomatoes, onions, kangkong, pechay) to add fiber and volume to your meal.
- Choose cooking methods like boiled, steamed, or lightly sautéed instead of deep-frying.
- Watch added salt: season with herbs, garlic, or a smaller amount of bagoong/soy sauce.
- For snacks, keep it simple: 1 egg with fruit or veggies, not heavy sides.
- Balance your fats across the day—if you have eggs, go lighter on fatty meats and creamy sauces in the same meal.
