Eggs are Gaining at the Center of the Heart-healthy Diet, and so are the Top 7 Players

Being a compact and natural source of vitamins and minerals needed for the smooth functioning of the body and brain, Egg keeps one energized. The most recent studies and the 2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans both support the use of eggs in a balanced diet. Because eggs are a cheap, readily available source of high-quality protein with a variety of vitamins and minerals that support health at every stage of life, this is especially troubling.

An average egg of large size contains 70 calories which contain supportive nutrients for brain health. As per the advisory of the American Heart Association, healthy individuals can include a whole egg in their heart-healthy dietary consumption patterns. In the case of an older healthy person, this amount could be two eggs per day in relation to a heart-healthy diet.

Because egg-based products are becoming more and more popular driven by the confectionary sector, a wide variety of egg products are currently available on the market. As a result, the growth of the egg and egg product markets can be attributed to the widespread availability of a variety of egg products. These products come in solid, concentrated, crystalline, frozen, liquid, and deep-frozen forms.

As a result of the aforementioned factors, the demand for egg products is expected to reach a valuation of US$ 11.3 billion in 2021, according to the latest Fact.MR study. The value of the egg products market is expected to surge to US$ 23.1 billion by 2031, exhibiting growth at a healthy CAGR of 7.4% over the next ten years.
