Summary
Spray-dried eggs represent a viable alternative to battle malnutrition.
Hen eggs are considered the cheapest protein but a valuable protein source. The global per capita consumption is estimated at around 161 eggs, a high number that has been increasing over the years. However, not all people around the world consume this food. This is why some researchers evaluated spray-dried eggs as a micronutrient-rich nutritional supplement.
“Regular consumption of hen eggs can help to prevent deficiencies of essential nutrients, such as essential amino acids, vitamin A and E or trace elements zinc and selenium, for vulnerable populations.”
