Research shows introducing eggs into the diet significantly improved the growth of infants ages six to nine months.
Eggs provide many nutrients such as choline and other growth factors that are highly bio available.
With respect to allergy concerns, current research shows that the prevalence of allergies appears to be lower as early introduction (at 7 months) may help sensitize a child and prevent future allergic reactions.
Egg is a good source of protein and could replace other sugary foods that can actually stunt growth if in excess.
