Bounty Fresh Eggs presents World Egg Day to help increase awareness on health benefits of eating eggs
Bounty Fresh, the country’s biggest egg producer,
is spearheading the celebration of the World Egg Day in the Philippines on
October 12, an event that aims to educate the Filipinos about the health
benefits of consuming eggs daily.
The event, which will mark the first time that a
Philippine egg brand will initiate its celebration in the country, will be held
at the Mall Atrium in Eastwood. A number of activities have been lined for that
day including cooking demonstrations by celebrity chefs using eggs as the main
ingredients, talks by health experts to discuss the health benefits of eating
eggs as part of a daily diet, singing contests, games, among others.
As the country’s top egg producer, hosting the
one-day event is but fitting for Bounty Fresh, known for its Gold Standard when
it comes to eggs because of the high quality of its products, and the utmost
care given to the eggs starting from how the hens are raised on healthy feeds
in state-of-the-art facilities.
Through the event, Bounty Fresh is hoping that more
Filipinos will be encouraged to add eggs into their daily diet not only because
they are a very good source of affordable, high quality protein, but also
because they are rich in vitamins D, B2, B6 and B12. They are also a good
source of minerals such as zinc, iron and copper, as well as choline.
Because of the vitamins and minerals found on eggs,
consuming them will help strengthen muscles, boost the health of the brain,
bolster energy production, promote a healthy immune system, as well as lower
the risk of heart diseases mainly because of choline, which helps in breaking
down the amino acid homocysteine that is associated with the development of
heart diseases.
Eggs are also healthful for pregnancy as the
nutrients help prevent congenital disabilities such as spina bifida. Moreover,
eggs aid weight loss and maintenance, improve eyesight and promote healthier
skin.
This year’s event will be the onset of Bounty Fresh
Eggs’ yearly celebration of World Egg Day. Aside from the Philippines, the World
Egg Day will also be celebrated in countries like Australia, The UK, USA,
Brazil, France and neighboring Asian countries like Vietnam and Indonesia, to
name a few.
