Patient's question:
In large-scale chicken farms, the feed used contains less pigment, so which yolk is good? Who knows?Doctor's answer:
The nutritional value of brown-shelled eggs and white-shelled eggs is the same. The difference between red and white is due to the breed of chickens and the type of feed they are given. Large-scale chicken farms use feed with less pigment and often include white fish meal, so the eggshells are white. Brown eggs, on the other hand, are typically laid by chickens raised by small-scale farmers, who feed them a variety of feed types rich in lutein, giving the shells a red hue. However, since yellow does not add any nutritional value, it is not possible to determine which is more nutritious based on the color of the shell.
