Egg should be boiled for 6 to 10 minutes in moderate temperature to retain its nutritive value. Over heating causes nutrition loss.
Mahatma Gandhi on Eggs

Well, Friends! Now, we will discuss on the most interesting part of this topic on Egg. Mahatma Gandhi in his speech delivered at the London Vegetarian Society in 1931 endorsed emphasis on eating eggs. Thus said Gandhiji-
" A layman does not consider milk to be animal food. On the other hand,eggs are regarded by the layman as a flesh food. In reality, they are not. Now-a-days, sterile eggs are also produced. The hen is not allowed to see the cock and yet it lays eggs. A sterile egg never develops into a chick. Therefore, he who can take milk should have no objection to taking sterile eggs."
We all eat to live. As is our food, so is our body, mind n spirit. Food is full of life. Therefore, it is always wise to take eggs at anytime.Eat eggs everyday, to keep healthy and fit. So, Any time is Egg time. Now, it is Corona Crisis Times, World-wide...
