Performance Benefits
This meal has a great combination of all the macronutrients; protein, fats and carbohydrates. This balance helps provide sustained energy throughout the day, keeping you fuelled and focused. The eggs are a fantastic source of high-quality protein, which is vital for muscle repair and growth post-exercise.
Health Benefits
Eggs contain essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D, vitamin B12, choline, selenium and phosphorus. These play important roles in bodily functions such as bone health, brain function and metabolism. Avocadoes are a source of healthy fats that lower 'bad' LDL cholesterol and promote healthy heart functioning.
