2. Source of Iron
Iron is a vital dietary nutrient because it carries oxygen in the blood, and helps maintain a healthy immune system and normal metabolism. When a person doesn't have enough iron in their diet, they are likely to feel tired, irritable, and have frequent headaches. Egg yolks are an excellent source of heme iron, the easiest type for the body to absorb and use.
