Enriched eggs

Enriched eggs

Nowadays, several people consider eggs as unhealthy. People consider health risks associated with consuming eggs such as increase in cholesterol levels and blood pressure. These fears have given rise to a small industry of enriched eggs. This means, eggs that contain Omega-3 oils. Now Omega-3 is not a natural nutrient in conventional chicken eggs. However, a few poultry owners give special feed to their chicken that contains Omega-3 oils. Such feed is generally derived from fish. Consequently, they produce eggs that are rich in Omega-3 oils, which are known to curb and combat cholesterol. Omega-3 enriched eggs retail at Rs.150 to Rs.200 per dozen. They are available only at select, high-end stores. You can enter the poultry business to produce Omega-3 enriched eggs. This book on Amazon can help you to setup this business.
