Reduce your stress and anxiety by eating eggs every day
While you may not be as familiar with lysine as you are with biotin, this essential amino acid found in eggs has some pretty incredible health benefits. According to one study, it appears to reduce long-term anxiety and acute stress. Zinc, which is also found in eggs, has also “been linked to lowered anxiety,” according to Harvard Health Publishing.
In addition curbing anxiety, Healthline revealed that lysine can suppress herpes outbreaks, improve glucose responses in diabetics, and even lower blood pressure. “It may also improve your health overall by helping your body produce collagen, digestive enzymes, antibodies, and protein hormones,” the publication noted. Although lysine supplements are available, Healthline recommends getting your lysine “naturally, from foods” whenever possible. In addition to eggs, lysine can be found in dairy products like yogurt, cheese, butter, and milk as well as meat and seafood.
