Eggs offer an array of health benefits:

  • Nutrient-rich and low in calories: A large Grade A egg contains only 70 calories and 5 grams of fat.

  • Protein powerhouse: One egg provides about 6 grams of protein, which is vital for an active lifestyle.

  • Abundance of essential nutrients: Eggs contain iron, vitamins A, D, E, folate, and selenium.

  • Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Enriched through flaxseed in the hens' diet, these support heart health.

Egg Farmers of New Brunswick provide fresh, locally sourced eggs and actively contribute to community health. Their commitment to sustainability ensures a bright future for egg farming in the province.
