    Eggs are indeed rich in nutrients, but should not be eaten during fever, especially fried poached eggs or scrambled eggs. Because eggs mainly contain egg protein and ovalbumin, which is a complete protein, 99.7% can be absorbed by the body. After eating eggs, a certain amount of extra heat will be generated, which will increase the body's heat and exacerbate fever symptoms. Similarly, other high-protein foods such as lean meat and fish will also increase the body's calories and should be eaten as little as possible.
