Official title
EffectEffects of Egg Consumption on Carotenoid Absorption From Co-consumed, Non-Egg Food
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans emphasizes consumption of 4.5 cups of fruits and vegetables daily but average intake of US adults is only 2.6 cups. This low consumption of fruits and vegetables results in limited availability of certain nutrients found in these foods such as carotenoids. Dietary carotenoids have health beneficial properties and are known to fight against disease. Eggs are known to be a good source of carotenoids and eggs may improve the absorption of carotenoids found in co-consumed fruits and vegetables. Therefore, we are interested to see if consuming eggs with a mixed-vegetable salad will increase carotenoid absorption.
