Eggs contain a range of vitamins and minerals and less than 80 calories per medium egg. And there is no need to worry about cholesterol - for most people, they have a negligible effect on blood cholesterol and all major heart and health organisations have lifted limits on consumption.

"Eggs really are one of the most versatile foods around - and you don't have to be a professional chef to cook them." Paul Merrett
