The Benefits of Eating Egg with Honey
In traditional medicine, a mixture of egg, sesame oil, honey and Ceylon cinnamon is considered very nourishing and good for the health of the whole body.
What each ingredient brings
Egg. Eggs, especially the yolk, are rich in vitamin D, omega-3 and vitamin K2, nutrients that are not easy to find in other foods. They:
- support the body’s resistance
- support bone density and muscle strength
- support brain function
- raise energy levels
Sesame oil. Cooking the egg in sesame oil improves nutrient absorption and adds to its benefits, because sesame oil is rich in calcium, magnesium and many other vitamins and minerals.
Honey. Adding honey to the egg makes it easier to digest and adds to its energising effect. It also balances the moisture and warmth of the mixture.
Ceylon cinnamon. It gives the mixture an energising, strengthening quality, helps keep the body’s fat balance, and supports the benefits of the sesame oil.
Benefits of this mixture in traditional medicine
- Strengthens the immune system and gives energy
- Supports brain function and memory
- Supports sexual strength and fertility
- Moisturises the skin and prevents dryness
- Protects joint health and eases muscle aches
- Helps balance blood sugar and supports metabolism
Why eat egg with honey?
Honey is a natural, quickly absorbed source of carbohydrate, so eating egg with honey meets the body’s energy needs. It also helps the body make full use of all the amino acids in the egg.
This combination is especially useful for:
- older people
- children (honey only after the age of one)
- thin or anaemic people
- people with low physical strength
- people with weak sexual strength
- athletes and people doing heavy work who need more protein
Who is it best for?
- It is especially recommended for people with a cold temperament.
- People with a hot temperament should eat it in moderation.
- The best time to eat it is at breakfast.
Note: people with diabetes should be careful with the honey, and anyone with an egg allergy should avoid this mixture.
