In this video, we’re talking about the egg diet plan.
Now, a lot of people are asking about this because it’s a lot of hype around it.
A lot of people are following this egg diet plan losing a ton of weight, having more energy,
and just feeling great.
What we’re gonna do is, first of all, talk about the egg diet plan, what you eat on the
egg diet plan. Also, we’re gonna talk about some practical thoughts as to how I think
this egg diet plan is really working, and how I think you should proceed. Stick around
to the end of the video.
Now, when we look at egg nutrition in the egg diet,, in general,, I don’t think that
eggs are bad by any means. Some people are freaked out by this whole thing because they’re
afraid that the eggs are gonna raise their cholesterol cause them to have a heart attack.
So many other terrible things.
Now and eggs are completely healthy.
I’ve done lots of different content around this. When we look at egg nutrition they’re
loaded with choline, which is good for the brain. Vitamins A,B, and D.
Also, antioxidants which are very important for overall health.
They are high in fat, protein, and they also contain 77 calories per egg so that’s kind
of the basic nutritional profile of the egg and we look at the egg diet in general.
First of all, it’s a diet that is predominately based on eggs, but it allows for some other
things. First of all, lean proteins include eggs, chicken, fish, and turkey. Now, when
we look at the lean proteins here, once again, we’re sticking towards a very few different
ones.
Not a huge array. Now when we look at what you could also eat on the egg diet because
there’s other foods involved in the egg diet, then just eggs I know it’s a little
confusing, right?
First, there’s veggies and fruit and when we look at the veggies days were sticking
to the low carbohydrate veggies so the broccoli, the zucchini, spinach, kale.
Now, grape fruit is added in there as well.
I think grapefruit is in there for a couple reasons. First of all, it’s a low glycemic
index fruit. The other reason is that it helps boost up your metabolism, a lot of people
are doing this to try lose weight.
Now another variation of the egg diet is what I would call the extreme egg diet. Where you
are eating just eggs. That’s it. Eggs for days on end.
That is the other variation of that. Some of the benefits that people are finding,
first of all, incredible weight loss which is great .
Also, a lot more energy so they just feel better every single day, able to get out of
bed just have that energy throughout the entire day. Also, they notice that they’re eating
a clean diet. A couple practical thoughts, I think that one of the reasons that people
are saying such good results is that they’re just cleaning up their diet if you’re eating
a standard American diet or just a standard diet, in general, and you clean up your act.
You remove carbohydrates, processed foods, sugar, and all these things that you shouldn’t
be eating in the first place, and you start the egg diet. Well of course, you’re going
to get great results. You’re gonna feel great. Maybe that’s what some people need.
They just need that kind of really strict diet to help move them to the right place.
So they can start achieving their health goals.
Now, when we look at the benefits of this too, if we were to look at someone who is
on the ketogenic diet, or a good low carb diet. I doubt that they would go to the egg
diet and go, “Wow, I’m feeling so much better this is awesome.”
What I’m saying is that people are getting great results just because they’re cleaning
up their diet. Okay, now the egg diet, in general, is that something that you should
follow for a long period of time? Absolutely not.
It’s very strict. It’s a little unnecessary to do for a long period of time. If you need
that just to help clean up your act to get you in the right place. I am all for it and
I think that after you do maybe the egg diet for a week or two you can just go into a good
low-carb diet or more keto-based diet.
Now when we look at the extreme egg diet I am not a fan of that at all. That’s just
eating plain eggs. There’s a couple reasons that I’m not a fan of this, first of all,
it’s because you’re not gonna get a good nutrient profile.
You’re just going to be getting the nutrients that come from eggs. Which you know is good,
but it’s not great. You’re not gonna get the same nutrient profile that you’re going
to get from eating kale, broccoli, spinach, good meat.
When we look at the egg diet, doing the extreme one, I would stay away from that. You’re
probably going to cause some autoimmunity issues in your body. What I mean by that is
that, clinically, we do this profile where we look at all the different foods that you’re
immune system is very sensitive to. Eggs happens to be very high in the list for many people.
A lot of people also have a leaky gut. They overconsume a particular food it causes more
autoimmune issues as these large particles of the food are getting into the bloodstream.
Eating just eggs day after day, or eating any food day after day is never a good idea.
I’m always a big fan of diet variation. If you’re going to do the egg diet to kind
of get you out of a bad place and move to a good clean wholesome diet and then continue
moving towards achieving your goals. I’m all for it. But I wouldn’t go towards this
route right here.
