The quail egg, in addition to its high taste, is valuable because it is included in the list of the most useful food products. It is about 5 times lighter than chicken, but it contains much more vitamins, trace elements and essential amino acids.
What are the beneficial substances contained in a quail egg
Quail eggs not only increase immunity and help to treat a number of diseases, but also inhibit the development of certain types of malignant tumors.
This product is rich in vitamin A, B vitamins, proteins, essential amino acids, trace elements such as potassium, phosphorus, iron, copper. Moreover, iron (per unit mass of the product) in a quail egg is about 4 times more than in a chicken egg, and potassium and phosphorus - almost 5 times. There are also more vitamins, proteins and essential amino acids - 2-3 times more. It is not surprising that this product, which is truly a storehouse of useful substances, moreover in an easily digestible form, is strongly recommended by doctors for use!
Quail eggs are especially recommended for feeding weakened patients with low immunity.
Note that eggs need to be stored properly. At room temperature, the shelf life is 30 days; at a temperature of 0-8 ° C - 2 months.
What diseases are quail eggs especially useful for?
According to the results of numerous observations, an indisputable positive effect was noted from the use of quail eggs for anemia, chronic bronchitis and pneumonia, bronchial asthma, hypertension, a number of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as diseases of the nervous system and diabetes mellitus. There is also evidence that the use of quail eggs contributes to the effective removal of radionuclides from the body, therefore this product must be included in the diet of people exposed to radiation, as well as those living in disadvantaged (in terms of radiation) territories, for example, near the Chernobyl zone. In addition, there was evidence in the medical literature that regular consumption of quail eggs reduces the likelihood of malignant tumors, as well as inhibits their development.
Some doctors and biologists are skeptical about such data, explaining them by the "placebo effect", that is, self-hypnosis. However, most experts do not doubt the usefulness of quail eggs.
Quail eggs are especially effective in combination with dietary products, helping to improve metabolism and increase immunity. They are very well absorbed and do not cause (unlike the same chicken eggs) allergic reactions. Therefore, quail eggs are especially beneficial for young children and the elderly. They also need to be introduced into the diet of those people who have problems with the gastrointestinal tract. There are many recipes based on quail eggs.
