A Top Nutrient You’re Throwing Away & 5 Reasons Why You Should Eat It
For years we’ve focused on egg whites when the yolk is an essential nutrient source
I made many mistakes during my muscle-building years, as we all have.
Throwing out the yolk of an egg was one of these mistakes.
I believed that the fat in the yolk would increase my caloric intake, diminishing my chances of losing the body fat I needed to look my best for competition day.
