Want brainy children? Try eggs

Children have seven special groups of foods, out of which, they should take at least four. Out of the seven, one is an egg. [File, Standard]

Many first time parents are not sure whether they should feed their children with eggs. It is one of those feeding practices that carry a lot of myths and misinformation which see many denying their children eggs.

Take Nancy Wekesa, a first-time mother in London Estate Nakuru County. Her three-year-old son loves eggs but she is not keen on the diet arguing consumption makes him slow in speech and forgetful of what he learns in school and they also “make him not to recall anything I tell him.”
