Eggs are a culinary treasure. Rich in protein, they also contain lecithin, vitamins, and a variety of minerals. Dr. Jhang Wei-Jyun, the fifth-generation heir of Taiwan’s traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) family Huai Sheng Tang, shared a variety of egg therapies said to benefit vascular and bone health.
