National World Egg Day is observed to emphasize the benefits of eggs and their importance in human nutrition. According to the American Heart Association’s guidelines, the health benefits of eggs outweighed concerns over cholesterol. The AHA says healthy adults can enjoy an egg per day and easily remain within the daily cholesterol limits. Eggs carry a relatively low-calorie count of about 75 calories for an average sized egg. While the eggs that Americans typically consume come from chickens, a wide range of poultry (like ducks and geese) provide tasty gourmet egg varieties. National Egg Day is celebrated annually on 3rd June, in the United States.
