The present invention relates to the field of food products, especially food products specifically designed for providing health benefits beyond the basic function of nutrition for a subject consuming the product on a regular basis, e.g. on a daily basis. According to the present invention eggs are produced, in particular chicken eggs, that are enriched in one or more pharmacologically active nutrients. The egg yolk obtained from the aforementioned eggs can suitably be used in high amounts as a component of a functional food product having all the characteristics that are normally required for such functional food products. A preferred example of a food product in accordance with the invention is a ready to drink shot containing approximately one whole egg yolk in a volume as small as 100 ml.
