Sound Bites With Melissa Joy Dobbins

Eggs are naturally nutrient rich - and the cholesterol stigma has been cracked! But did you know that eggs have important nutrients for cognition, brain health and eye health? And they fit into healthy eating patterns including plant-based diets. In fact, eggs can help you absorb nutrients found in plant foods, and can also help you meet daily protein needs to support healthy muscles and strong bones as you age. Plus, eggs are an excellent delivery system for vegetables and other foods to help boost nutrition and cut down on food waste.  Today's guest is Dr. Mickey Rubin, the Executive Director of the Egg Nutrition Center. Tune in to hear the good news about this versatile, budget-friendly, nutrient-rich food. This episode is a partnership with the Egg Nutrition Center.
