So cool! Why would they not use a more of a mesh enclosure to allow sunlight, ect in?

Freddy Russo1 year ago

Great! But are they getting enough needed sun? That would be ideal.

Matt Netterville1 year ago

What brands use this method? i.e. Who do I buy these eggs from?

Cyber Shaman1 year ago

Wow that is really frickin cool! Regenerative farming at scale; incredible to see this! So hopeful for the future!

Sunflower Gurl1 year ago

Wow. I would just get worried about a chicken getting caught in the wheel gears.

Valentin Madrous1 year ago

This looks like a dream, but in today's world, "most" farmers who are providing super markets don't care about how healthy the chicken is and only about profits. So finding these in supermarkets would be like something, so probably a deal with the farmer like getting them straight from them is best. I hope to see more farmers go this way because people now look at what they chickens are being fed and where they are grown.

Damn... food test said egg white sensitivity.

Our government has to get on board with innovation and production of healthy food. We need to be looking at what’s really good for the environment, not getting rid of farting cattle. Silvopasture is afantastic, way to grow timber and cattle together. RFK Jr has many great ideas

Grocery Store "Pasture-Raised" Eggs Are One of the Biggest Food Cons Right Now Think you're doing better by paying premium for those fancy "pasture-raised" eggs from Vital Farms, Kirkland, or Trader Joe's? — Here's the ugly truth. Farmers with 50+ years of experience are stunned: eggs showing weird foreign chemical flakes peeling off the shells. These aren't the clean, natural eggs the labels promise. This is what's really happening: - Shells from GMO-fed birds, dunked in 90° chlorine pools. - Coated in **liquid paraffin** (yes, the same pharmaceutical sold as a laxative). - Yolks dyed orange with **canthaxanthin** to fake that "healthy" look. - Hens crammed indoors most of the year — "pasture" access? Often just 120 days, if that. - Scanned results show high **linoleic acid** (Omega-6 bomb from corn/soy GMO feed) — levels rivaling cheap caged eggs. The "pasture" label is marketing magic. You're not getting nutrient-dense, truly free-range eggs — just a pricier version of the industrial system with better packaging. **Wake up.** Your breakfast staple might be doing more harm than good. Ditch the grocery illusions and seek out verifiable local farms, farm markets or scan brands carefully.

This meal cost me $1.75. Hard boiled eggs. Butter mayo. Pepperonis. That’s it. That’s dinner. Are these pasture-raised eggs? Nope. Bought them at Kroger. $3 for 18 eggs. And you know what? They’re still one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. One egg — ONE — gives you: ✓ 6 grams of complete protein with all 9 essential amino acids ✓ 27% of your daily choline (most Americans are deficient) ✓ 28% of your daily selenium ✓ B12, B2, vitamin D, vitamin A ✓ Healthy fats that help your body actually absorb all those nutrients An egg is literally everything needed to build a living creature, wrapped in a shell. Self-contained. No processing. No ingredient list. Just crack and eat. Are pasture-raised eggs nutritionally superior? Sure. They’ve got more omega-3s. The yolks are prettier. But does that mean regular eggs are garbage? Absolutely not. A grocery store egg is still a nutritional powerhouse. It’s still real food. It’s still a massive upgrade from the cereal, granola bars, and drive-thru breakfast sandwiches most people are eating. If you can afford pasture-raised, great. Buy them. If you can’t? The eggs at Kroger are still going to give you high-quality protein, brain-supporting choline, and nutrients your body actually needs — for about 17 cents each. Don’t let anyone shame you out of eating real food because you can’t afford the “ideal” version. Progress beats purity. Every single time. 🥚🍳

Rhonda Patrick just served up the no-BS breakfast blueprint on Chris Williamson's podcast: 4–5 pasture-raised eggs, scrambled—straight fire for brain health and sustained energy. Why this simple combo crushes: - 30–38g complete protein → keeps you full, powers muscle/brain without crashes - ~500–750mg choline (yolks are gold) → sharpens focus, memory, and fights cognitive decline (studies link moderate intake to ~50% lower Alzheimer's risk) - Lutein & zeaxanthin → eye/brain protectors (way higher in pasture-raised vs. conventional factory eggs—those pale ones are basically nutrient ghosts) No smoothies, no $20 açai bowls—just real, affordable food that literally upgrades your neurology first thing. Rhonda's take: "Pasture-raised eggs have way more of the good stuff." If you're dragging mid-morning or want to future-proof your brain, this is the low-effort hack that actually moves the needle. Your move: Do you smash eggs daily for breakfast? Scrambled, boiled, omelet with greens? What's your twist (or why you skip 'em)? Hit me with your real routines below—best ones get the nod.

No fancy recipes, no 17-step meal prep—just real food that actually upgrades your biology before 9 a.m. Watch the 38-second clip below where she explains it perfectly What’s YOUR favorite way to cook eggs in the morning?

Rhonda Patrick just gave a super practical breakfast recommendation on Chris Williamson’s podcast. She recommends eggs (4–5 depending on your size) scrambled, paired with bacon, steak, or smoked salmon for omega-3s. She prefers pasture-raised eggs because the chickens eat grass and greens, boosting choline (key for brain function) and lutein. Simple, high-protein, nutrient-dense, and no processed junk. Studies confirm egg yolk choline improves verbal memory and cognitive function, while pasture-raised eggs contain significantly more lutein, omega-3s, and better nutrient profiles than conventional ones. High-protein breakfasts also stabilize energy and focus throughout the day. Most breakfast advice is either overly complicated or loaded with sugar. This feels sustainable and actually nourishing. I’ve been leaning into higher-protein mornings lately and the difference in steady energy is noticeable. Rhonda’s approach feels refreshingly straightforward. What’s your go-to high-protein breakfast that actually keeps you full and sharp?

Back to basics. Back to real food. 🥚🇺🇸 Eggs are one of the most nutrient-dense foods we have — and exactly the kind of food we should be prioritizing for our kids and families. Great to be with Secretary Kennedy and Calley Means ahead of the egg Super Bowl (Easter!!!) talking about what it means to Make America Healthy Again.
