Benefits of each Ingredient:

Tallow or Butter

  • Benefits: Both tallow and butter are excellent sources of healthy fats, which provide long-lasting energy and aid in nutrient absorption. Tallow is rich in CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), supporting inflammation reduction, while butter provides fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.

Large Eggs

  • Benefits: Eggs are a complete protein, providing all nine essential amino acids, along with choline for brain health, and B vitamins for energy production. The yolk is also a great source of healthy fats, iron, and vitamin D.

Cooked Bacon

  • Benefits: Bacon adds a savory, smoky flavor while providing protein and fats. It is a good source of essential minerals like phosphorus, selenium, and zinc, which are important for immune function and bone health.

Shredded Cheddar Cheese

  • Benefits: Cheese offers a creamy texture and enhances flavor while being rich in calcium for bone health. It also provides a dose of protein and healthy fats to keep you satiated.

Sea Salt

  • Benefits: Sea salt balances electrolytes, supports proper hydration, and enhances the natural flavors of the ingredients. It’s especially beneficial for ketogenic and low carb diets, which require replenishing sodium levels.

Black Pepper and Dried Chives

  • Black Pepper Benefits: Rich in piperine, it enhances nutrient absorption and supports digestion. It also has antioxidant properties.

  • Dried Chives Benefits: Add a hint of freshness and provide small amounts of vitamins A and C, which are good for eye health and the immune system.
