so today we’re going to talk about the

quality of eggs sometimes when you break

this egg open you see this darker deep

rich orange color and sometimes it’s a

pale yellow what’s the difference well

generally speaking when you see the

darker orange it’s usually from

pasture-raised

organic eggs and the factory farm eggs

are going to be yellow unless they add

something to change the color which

sometimes they do now the reason why the

egg yolk is a deeper orange is that

these chickens are pasture raised okay

not pasteurized pasture-raised they’re

out in the pasture they’re eating the

grass or eating the insects they do have

grains but if you’re getting the organic

it’s at least GMO free and the

combination of being outside getting the

Sun and what they eat change the

composition of the carotenoids

carotenoids are plant-based chemicals

they’re pigments they’re antioxidants

they’re vital nutrients that have

additional health properties there’s

about 1,000 100 different carotenoids

and they prevent the effects from

oxidation for example they can improve

macular degeneration

which is a problem in the eye so when

you see this deeper rich orange color

you’re getting more antioxidants versus

the factory farm eggs which you you’ll

see in the label it says vegetarian feed

well yeah they’re actually using grains

soy corn it’s gonna be GMO there’s no

Sun so even if it says cage-free they

may be outside the cage but they’re

still in the barn so they rarely get to

go outside so because of that you’re

gonna see more of a pale yellow a

lighter yellow now realize that even

though it’s pasture raised it may not

always be orange

it could be yellow but the color is a

deeper richer yellow it’s not going to

be pale
