"What I’ve come to realize, is that I function a whole lot better when I have a good amount of fat and protein in the morning. And eggs are a great source for that! Are you still chicken scared to eat the yolks? Don’t be. They’re packed with vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. The whole egg is nature’s perfect gift," says Sharon Bishop of Paleo Fondue.
