HEALTH & WELLNESS - SPECIAL DIETS
Part of a Gluten-Free Diet
Eggs are a naturally gluten-free food, and can very easily be incorporated into your daily meal planning for a gluten-free diet. Eggs are highly functional proteins that are easily digestible, and SKM Best eggs provide more of the essential nutrients needed by our bodies. Eggs are often required to bind many gluten-free flours and starches when used in baking and cooking applications.
Contrary to a common misconception, usually because of their location in the grocery stores, eggs are not considered a dairy product. Eggs do not contain the sugar lactose. People with milk allergies or lactose intolerance may consume eggs as part of their diet without the negative result associated with dairy intolerances or allergies.

SUPERIOR NUTRITION - NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS OF SKM BEST EGGS
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps to protect body cells and tissues whether in the heart, skin, lungs, joints or elsewhere in the body. Antioxidants are nutrients in our foods which can prevent, or slow down, the oxidative damage to our bodies. Each SKM Best egg contains 10 times more Vitamin E than ordinary eggs, which is equal to 25% of the recommended daily intake for Vitamin E.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is important for healthy protein metabolism, as well as cognitive, cardiovascular, and nervous system health. Vitamin B12 is needed for the process of converting carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from food into energy. It also helps form healthy red blood cells, and may aid in the prevention of heart disease. SKM Best eggs have 3 times more Vitamin B12 than ordinary eggs.
Cholesterol
Each SKM Best egg has 175mg of cholesterol. Clinical tests have shown that people on a low-fat diet who ate 12 SKM Best eggs a week did not increase their serum cholesterol level. Our quality assurance laboratory regularly tests our eggs from each of our farms across the country to ensure that SKM Best eggs have a lower level of cholesterol.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D aids in the body's absorption of calcium, helping to form and maintain strong bones. It is important for maintaining muscle strength, healthy body fat levels, and body tissue health. Each SKM Best egg contains 2 times more Vitamin D than ordinary eggs, which is equal to 25% of the daily recommended intake of Vitamin D.
Protein
A single SKM Best egg supplies 10% of the protein we need each day. The protein found in eggs is considered to be a 'complete protein', or a composition which can supply all of the body's requirements with all of the essential amino acids. Protein is a major structural component of the cells in our bodies, especially in our muscles. It is needed to grow body tissue and repair body cells as they wear out, and it is needed to form blood cells. Protein also helps regulate body processes.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A, also called retinol, helps your eyes adjust to light changes when you come in from outside and also helps keep your eyes, skin and mucous membranes moist. Vitamin A comes mostly from animal foods, but some plant-based foods supply beta-carotene, which your body then converts into Vitamin A. It also has antioxidant properties that neutralize free radicals in the body that cause tissue and cellular damage.
