Eggs are a nutritious and versatile food that many of us enjoy for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. However, did you know that some food combinations with eggs may not be the best for digestion or overall health? Nutritionists point out that certain foods, when paired with eggs, could lead to bloating, discomfort, or reduce nutrient absorption.
First on the list is sugar. Mixing eggs with high amounts of sugar, like in some desserts, can produce harmful compounds during cooking that may not be good for the body.
Soy milk is another food to avoid pairing with eggs because both are rich in protein, and this combination can be heavy on digestion.
Processed meats like sausages or bacon may seem like a classic combo with eggs, but the excess saturated fat and salt can increase cholesterol levels.
Other foods include cheese in large amounts, which adds extra fat; tea, as its tannins can interfere with protein absorption; orange juice, because the acid can cause stomach discomort; beans, which might lead to excessive gas; and red meat, which with eggs can make a meal too protein-dense.
Balancing your plate is key to enjoying eggs without issues.
