The results of analyses carried out be the Food Technology Institute at the University of Campinas (ITAL/UNICAMP) have proven that our eggs contain high levels of Selenium, Vitamin E, and Omega 3. Analyses on the cheeses produced with buffalo milk have also shown higher levels of Proteins and Calcium compared to cheese produced with cow milk.
Find out a bit more about the important role played by these nutrients in enabling your body to function properly.
Calcium - Calcium is an essential element for living creatures. It is the most abundant inorganic element in animals, where it is mainly found in the form of calcium phosphate in bones and teeth. Blood is also an important calcium ion reservoir.
Proteins - Proteins play a fundamental role in the organism. They are essential in weight-loss diets and during physical exercise, acting in the building and repair of tissues.
Selenium - Selenium, unlike other metals, is an element that is essential for human health. It acts alongside Vitamin E in protecting the organism’s cells against oxidation damage, especially by slowing down the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol, which catalyzes the reactions of the intermediary mechanism, as well as inhibiting the toxic effects of the heavy metals: As, Cd, Hg and Sn. There are also strong indications that it acts as a protector in the case of chronic diseases such as arteriosclerosis, cancer, arthritis, cirrhosis and emphysema. Selenium slows down aging, combats premenstrual tension, preserves tissue elasticity, prevents cancer and neutralizes free radicals.
Omega 3 - Omega 3 is a dietary supplement which is indicated for the primary and secondary prevention of arteriosclerosis and coronary disease. It is also indicated as a coadjuvant in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.
Vitamin E - The importance of Vitamin E in human beings has only recently been accepted. Nevertheless, several pathologies associated with alterations in the levels of this vitamin have already been identified. Vitamin E deficiency is known to occur under certain specific conditions, including: genetic defects that affect the alpha-tocopherol transfer protein, severe malnutrition and fat malabsorption syndromes.
