Egg yolks raised on pasture have orange egg yolks, you rarely see that in grocery store eggs! When we were in Scotland the food was so much healhier. Beautiful orange yolks, all pasture raise meats! Food was cheaper too. American food is factory farmed crap.

My grandmother raised chickens and sold eggs in the 1940s & 50s. She didn't feed them because they naturally ate bugs and produce scraps. She never refrigerated the eggs. The hens keep them warm when they nest so they don't need to be cold. She only washed the shells prior to cooking them. Washing them is what makes it necessary to refrigerate them. Great video! ❤

I am amazed! I never saw Red-yellow egg yolk. I never knew all the health aspects. I stopped eating eggs regularly because of my misunderstanding of cholesterol risk, and I didn’t know that healthy eggs do not need to be refrigerated. I have no problem with paying more money for healthy eggs. Now I know what to look for. Thank you once again, Dr. Li!

Wow. All you need to know about eggs in one video! Thanks Dr Li!

When I was in primary school in the early 60's, my parents esp my Dad is very strict we should have a proper breakfast before we leave for school (there were no roti canai nor nasi lemak those days). My bunch of sisters hate eggs, they wait for Dad to leave & skip their eyes. Good for me, I will have their shares as well. From those early days till now, I have my 2 half boiled eggs without fail am gonna be 75 soon. To me eggs are the best source for healthy proteins !

Thank you for defending the humble, wonderful egg.
I have two eggs every morning with sourdough toast and 15 g of baby spinach.
This breakfast starts the fat burning process in my diet plan.
I lost 8 kg since last Christmas.

Thank you, Doctor !

The color of the yolk does depend on what they eat, but pasture raised may not be that dark orange color. It depends on the pasture. And...whether pasture raised or in a factory, you can put things in the feed to get a dark color - which may or may not indicate carotenoids.. Get to know your chickens :)

Butter (or even better, ghee) is healthy too. 8-/

PS: Even better is organic, grass-fed ghee, which is what I cook with when eating animal products, partly because it's high temperature tolerant. I do add organic extra virgin olive oil to other foods.

We raise free range hens for eggs. They are the happiest creatures. The yolks are indeed bright orange and absolutely delicious!

Thank you Doc, great video! I grew opposite as you, didn't have eggs in the fridge till later in my teens, I'm 57 now, and everything you say is true. My grandma kept the eggs in her special basket and I befriended all the chickens and roosters and the geese and turkeys and so on. I was amazed by the younger generations, for some time now, they don't like anymore the eggs, meat and diaries as well, that are naturally produced - they say the taste is different and they don't like it. I hope your videos will change their mind and I'm grateful if this might educate them, at least on how to eat. I thank you as well for your videos and for sharing your knowledge with the world, for the work behind them! ❤

Dr. Li after watching this video I made eggs with olive oil. They were so good. You are a blessing.❤❤

[zsuzsablom]

I needed to know this as I love eggs but have cholesterol problems. I look to you for trustworthy information!

There is nothing wrong with butter. These doctors always talk about gut health but omit the butyrate in butter that is excellent for gut health. While I like olive oil, it does not compare in comparison with butter when it comes to flavoring an egg.

[saritahughes]

I used to own hens. You have inspired me to get another batch of the little chucks. Thank you ❤

[ashsharma]

I ate a lot of eggs (daily) while I was at Medical School in England (1969-1975). I’m 75 and doing well.

We Euros do not remove the cuticle from the egg and we vaccinate our chickens against salmonella. In Germany you have to go out of your way to even find non pasture raised eggs. Caged "battery" chicken are illegal. There are some that are just "free range" without specifying pasture but those all go to the fast food industry and large scale industrial processors.

Thank you, wonderful Dr. Liu, for enriching our lives!
May you live forever!❤

Our bodies are not the same, some foods give you an indication that they fo go well with your body. Sometimes it’s important to just listen to what your body tells you, and not use all info like a blanket for all.

❤❤❤❤eggs. My great grandmother lived to 94 and she had 1-2 eggs everyday.

[donnamelcher]

Eggs are tasty, too, I always get pasture raised when I run of eggs from my daughters chick's that are pasture raised. Also, I leave those out until washed off . Thank you Doc. for this video 🎉
