In a country that's raining food, making healthful choices about what to eat isn't easy. No matter how much we think we know about what goes into a nutritious meal, we often misjudge the selection--or we make poor choices.

As a result, we're overweight. Too many of us are getting diabetes. And any gains we've made against heart disease by reducing smoking seem about to disappear.

Find out how to eat smarter in this second part in our series of five.

Incredible, Edible?

Like fish and meat, eggs offer complete protein. They're also a great source of vitamins A, [B.sub.12], folic acid and riboflavin. In fact. eggs contain tiny amounts of all the vitamins except vitamin C. But that doesn't mean you should start each day with a couple of fried eggs.

Eggs have twice the cholesterol of beef. So three or four eggs a week are plenty. Better still, try omega eggs, which are high in beneficial omega-3 fatty acids and lower in saturated fat than conventional eggs.
