Pigeon eggs are the best of the eggs, sought after by the public because of the various effects of the legend that eating pigeon eggs is more conducive to the healing of wounds, better for the postpartum recovery. Pigeon eggs are not the same as eggs in terms of nutrition, so these differences are not destined to pigeon eggs more complementary?

1️⃣Pigeon eggs are higher in fat than eggs

Pigeon eggs fat content than eggs about 4 to 5% higher, and we eat eggs fragrant mainly because of its fat-specific flavor, then pigeon eggs will be more fragrant, because go to the fat content is higher, and pigeon eggs fat is rich in lecithin, fat in the content of vitamin E is also a little higher than the eggs, vitamin E on the softening of blood vessels and emulsification of cholesterol has some benefits, just poultry eggs itself is also high cholesterol food.

2️⃣ Pigeon eggs are lower in cholesterol than chicken eggs

Pigeon eggs are known to have high cholesterol. The cholesterol content of pigeon eggs is about 100mg lower than that of chicken eggs, which is a relatively low level among poultry eggs. For people with high blood fat, eat a pigeon egg every day, its cholesterol is about half of eating an egg, of course, in addition to the pigeon egg cholesterol content itself is low, there is also a pigeon egg is a small portion of a single, and our current standard of living is not a lack of protein, so high blood fat, blood pressure, blood sugar can eat pigeon eggs, but can not be liberalized more than one to eat.

3️⃣ Pigeon eggs don't have more B vitamins than chicken eggs

Poultry eggs contain a variety of B vitamins, but pigeon eggs do not have a higher content of B vitamins than eggs, our main source of B vitamins are still foods such as grains and cereals, soy products and fresh vegetables. When we can read the nutrition of food, we will not be impulsive words more money to buy food that is not more nutritious.

4️⃣Pigeon eggs have a higher content of many minerals than eggs

Pigeon eggs are generally higher in calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, selenium and other minerals than eggs, but we're not in the age where eggs are the only source of animal protein, and there are a wide variety of livestock, poultry, seafood, and soy products in our diets, so the minerals are easy to meet. It would be a bit of a misnomer to ask you to spend more money on pigeon eggs than you would on eggs just for that mineral. Besides, even if pigeon eggs have more iron than eggs, it's not enough compared to iron-rich foods like duck blood and pig liver.

5️⃣ Is it necessary to eat pigeon eggs exclusively?

To sum up, pigeon eggs are relatively low in cholesterol, better flavor of fat, protein belongs to high-quality protein, so it's still perfectly fine to eat, just to spend more shallow than eating eggs, it will have to see their own strength. Pigeon eggs and eggs nutritional difference is not very big, from the professional literature has not seen pigeon eggs have unique nutritional research data and reports, so if you say than eggs more complementary is not quite right. As a nutritionist, I give my own children to eat poultry eggs are mainly fresh eggs and quail eggs only.

Pigeon eggs are definitely not sold as much as eggs in the market, and if you are not a professional pigeon farm, it is difficult to collect enough pigeon eggs to deliver to the market every day. After all, pigeons lay eggs far less frequently than chickens, and even though they are greener and more natural, the pigeon eggs that reach your mouth are probably not the same as the last three or two.

It's laid within days. The probability of loose yolks in pigeon eggs on the free market is still quite high, which proves that they are not very fresh anymore. And my neighbor's family has dozens of pigeons of their own, and I once ate a freshly laid pigeon egg from his family, and it was indeed very fragrant and bouncy.

It is estimated that many people have eaten eggs, quail eggs, but pigeon eggs, it is estimated that fewer people eat it. After all, compared to eggs, it is not cheap.

Currently on the market circulating such a saying: pigeon eggs, one can top two eggs. Also said, eat pigeon eggs, eyes bright. Is it true that pigeon eggs are really that good?

Nutritionally, pigeon eggs are no more golden than eggs or quail eggs. Let's look at a comparison table of nutrients -

As you can see, pigeon eggs are lower in protein content, and micronutrients in general, than eggs.

And rumor has it that pigeon eggs contain 3.5 times more riboflavin than eggs to improve one's eyesight.

First of all, as you can see from the chart above, pigeon eggs do not have a higher riboflavin content than eggs. Again, riboflavin doesn't have much to do with protecting your eyesight.

Currently on the market, some people will exaggerate the efficacy of pigeon eggs, saying that pigeon eggs can promote the appetite of pregnant women, prevent pediatric leprosy, treatment of dizziness of pregnant women and so on. This is tantamount to the deification of food as medicine, is false propaganda.

At the end of the day, the eggs we eat are all derivatives of avian egg cells, and because their growth and development are not identical, the nutrients they contain are not all similar, but on the whole, the nutrients are relatively comprehensive. No one has to be better or worse than anyone else.

As for the pigeon eggs will be so expensive, on the one hand, it is the businessmen coaxed up, on the other hand, but also because of the small production of pigeon eggs. Pigeon male and female cohabitation, the strict implementation of the "monogamy", and the long breeding cycle, a pigeon laying two eggs per month, so, things are more expensive than rare.

How tonic are pigeon eggs?Eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs or quail eggs are something we can eat and see on a regular basis. However, pigeon eggs may not be so. Just because pigeon eggs it is too rare, and rarely seen in the market, not to mention whether you can eat it.

Since pigeon eggs are so rare and hard to see, what is their nutritional value?

I remember in the 70's and 80's, it was not uncommon to see pigeons at home, always flying and cooing in the air in groups. At that time, pigeon eggs were sometimes eaten. Nowadays, it seems that there are few pigeons in the sky, not to mention pigeon eggs. In fact, pigeon meat is very tasty, it is also rich in nutrition, especially pigeon meat fried salted melon seeds, is the rich characteristics of the Northeast region of small dishes. Due to the pigeon eggs of the original scarcity, coupled with pigeon farmers generally use it to hatch pigeon children, so, can eat it is still a great blessing.

What is the nutritional value of pigeon eggs? The following comparison will tell us the truth.

From the table above, it is easy to see that the nutritional value of pigeon eggs is not much higher than that of eggs and quail eggs. However, it can be seen that the protein content of pigeon eggs, as well as the overall content of micronutrients is still lower than that of eggs.

Is the legendary pigeon egg with two major nutritional values true or false?

First, it is necessary to clarify the rumors about the high nutritional value of pigeon eggs. Currently, there is a false rumor in the world that: "Pigeon eggs contain about 3 times more riboflavin than eggs, and riboflavin can improve the eyesight of high people". As we can see from the graph above, pigeon eggs do not contain more riboflavin than eggs. Moreover, riboflavin has little to do with the protection of eyesight.

Secondly, some people in the community will pigeon eggs effect deliberately exaggerated said hanging, such as: pigeon eggs can promote pregnant women's appetite increase, effective prevention of pediatric leprosy, can treat pregnant women dizziness and so on. These claims to the role of food is over-exaggerated and exaggerated, is very harmful.

Lizard little brother has something to say: pigeon eggs are derivatives of avian egg cells, is not what the big tonic special tonic, and there is no need to deliberately exaggerate the facts to deceive the uninformed people.

Pigeon eggs in the end how complementary? First of all, we often hear people say "a pigeon is better than nine chickens", from this point is enough to show that the pigeon is very complementary.But our topic today is pigeon eggs in the end how complementary. First of all, let's talk about the earth eggs in the countryside, when it comes to earth eggs we all think that the nutrition is very good, and the highest earth eggs in the countryside are sold to one dollar eight a piece.I'm talking about our local prices, I don't know much about other places, in our area it's impossible to go over two dollars, and I'll tell you more about the price of pigeon eggs just to see.The lowest was two dollars a pigeon egg, and at the high end of the price scale one sold for four dollars, which is pretty scary when you think about it.

Why do pigeon eggs fetch such a high price? First of all, they must be good value for money.This means that the market demand is very high, and pigeon eggs are not like eggs so one per day, after picking up a pair of pigeon eggs, the next laying will take a minimum of 10 days. Pigeons have a longer egg-laying cycle.Naturally, the nutritional value of pigeon eggs is certainly high, especially some post-surgery and children eat pigeon eggs is better, the nutritional value is very rich, containing a variety of nutrients that the human body needs. Nutritional value is extremely high, is definitely the nourishment of the body's best products.So now the pigeon egg market is in short supply, why the price has been high is this original problem, pigeon eggs than eggs, quail eggs, the nutritional value of a lot higher.

First let's find out what nutrients are in pigeon eggs.Pigeon eggs contain high quality protein and a small amount of fat, and contain a small amount of sugar, phospholipids, iron, calcium, vitamin A, vitamin D and other nutrients, easy to be easily digested and absorbed by the body.All in all, pigeon eggs have a high nutrient value, containing a variety of nutrients needed by the human body, and pigeon eggs actually have a certain beauty effect, so ladies should eat more, it is very helpful to the skin. The riboflavin content of pigeon eggs is several times that of eggs.So often eat pigeon eggs can enhance the body's immunity, so the synthesis of these data reference, is rare nourishing body good.Especially 3~4 years old children should eat more, is an important stage of physical development, but also can be appropriate to increase immunity.

It is because pigeon eggs sell very well and are more expensive favorable to cast.There are some unscrupulous traders who want to mind to make a fake, so for this is a must pay attention to, some commercial law pigeon eggs selling price is not high, sometimes the price is much lower than others.Many people think that these bosses do business more morally, in fact, on the contrary, these bosses are not morally, some quail eggs posing as pigeon eggs, really can be fake. After some chemical soaking, quail eggs can be completely bleached into white color, the appearance and pigeon eggs are very similar, if not carefully observed that is pigeon eggs.So when picking must pay attention to, pigeon eggs although is white color but with a little dark color, with quail eggs bleached after, looks white shiny color is not correct.So be careful when picking your pigeon eggs, I hope my answer helps.

Hello everyone I am Country Xu! If you like to raise pigeons, you can share your experience together, welcome to comment retweet + attention below.

The world thinks that it nourishes the yin and strengthens the yang. The pigeons are trained to fly hundreds of kilometers in the wind and rain, and their natural physical ability to challenge the limits of the eggs laid by them, a great tonic to the reasoning of analogy.

Pigeon eggs have been called "animal ginseng."

Eggs are generally high in nutritional value, and pigeon eggs are no exception. They are rich in high-quality protein, and have a full range of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin A, B vitamins, vitamin D, and iron, which are all prominent in common foods. But like other eggs, pigeon eggs yolks are also relatively high in cholesterol, but also to moderate, do not eat too much at a time.

Nutrient composition data for pigeon eggs are not available in the Chinese Food Composition Table (CFCT), and literature and studies are relatively scarce, based on the limited information available:

The calories per 100 grams of pigeon eggs are 173 kcal, protein 12.3 g, fat 14.5 g, carbohydrates 2.1 g

And per 100 grams of eggs, there are 144 kcal, 13.3 grams of protein, 8.8 grams of fat, 2.8 grams of carbohydrates

From the comparison of energy supplying nutrients, it can be seen that pigeon eggs have a higher protein content than eggs. Eggs are one of the most important sources of protein, and the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents recommend about 50 grams of eggs per day for an average adult, which can provide about 6 grams of protein for the body, accounting for 1/10 of the daily human protein requirement, and all of them are high-quality proteins. Adequate protein intake can maintain better resistance and reduce muscle loss.

Then there is the fat content, pigeon eggs are significantly higher than eggs, which is the main reason why pigeon eggs are more flavorful and more delicious, and eggs are mainly unsaturated fat, especially omega-3 fatty acids and phospholipids, which are beneficial to the brain nervous system and blood lipid regulation.

Of course, although the unsaturated fatty acids and phospholipids in pigeon eggs have an improved effect on blood lipid levels, but it is also rich in cholesterol, excessive cholesterol intake will elevate blood cholesterol levels, especially those who have their own three metabolic diseases, eggs try not to exceed 30 grams per day (equivalent to about 1 ~ 2 pigeon eggs, or half an egg), of course, pigeon eggs cholesterol content is slightly lower than that of eggs, this aspect, is also considered a small advantage of pigeon eggs.

Overall, pigeon eggs and eggs have a lot of similarities in terms of nutrition, and both have high nutritional value, rich in high quality protein, unsaturated fatty acids, iron, vitamin A and B vitamins, and slightly lower cholesterol content than eggs. Without considering the cost-effectiveness, pigeon eggs are still very recommendable.

Don't believe too much in this kind of health food, there are some exaggerated sky-high, as if the efficacy of the resurrection of the dead, in fact, nothing special, not as good as grains and cereals to support people.

The reason why the rumor that pigeon eggs, that is to think that in the past the material conditions are scarce, eat an egg are counted as a meal, let alone pigeon eggs such than eggs are rare objects. Now the standard of living is getting higher and higher, the human body are overnourished, honestly eat grains and cereals on the good [pray] [pray].

Pigeon eggs are rich in protein, vitamins and phospholipids, iron, a variety of trace elements, high nutritional value. Riboflavin is much higher than eggs, and its fat content is low. It is suitable for general people to eat.

Pigeon eggs are rich in protein, known as "animal ginseng".Pigeon eggs are eggs laid by mature female pigeons. In Dream of the Red Chamber, Phoenix picked a bowl of pigeon eggs and put them on the table of Liu Lou Lou, who was very touched by them. Why is this?Because in ancient times, pigeon meat and eggs were commonly used in high-grade feasts.

And now, pigeon eggs sold in the food market are also more expensive than other eggs. So how complementary are pigeon eggs to make them more expensive than other ordinary eggs?

Pigeon eggs are rich in protein, and other trace elements needed by humans.

Pigeon eggs are rich in protein and a small amount of fat and sugar, but also contain phospholipids, iron, calcium, vitamin A, vitamin D and other nutrients, containing calcium and iron are higher than eggs.And it's easily absorbed and has a creamy, smooth texture.

Pigeon eggs are mentioned in the Materia Medica, "For those who have suffered from deficiency for a long time, it is beneficial to eat them."

The riboflavin content of pigeon eggs is 2.5 times higher than that of eggs. Long-term consumption can enhance skin elasticity and improve blood circulation.

Moreover, the riboflavin content of pigeon eggs is 2.5 times higher than that of eggs, and its lecithin content is 3 to 4 times higher than that of eggs. Long-term consumption can make the face rosy, improve the vitality of skin cells, enhance the elasticity of skin and improve the circulation of blood.
