There was no correlation between consumption of eggs and coronary artery disease. Also no thickening of the carotid artery.
Enjoy!

I eat turkey eggs .....does that count..?
Shazam!
The experts were wrong!
Again!
“Eggs are bad, red meat is bad, butter is bad (eat margarine).”
That’s what the nutrition experts have been saying for decades.
Just one thing. They’ve been dead wrong.
Love me a 3-egg omelet with ham and cheese and hash browns, as well as most all things egg.
Yum!
I’m glad I’ve never paid any attention to what media-anointed experts have ever told me to do or not do.
Eggs are also a highly concentrated natural source of choline, which the body metabolizes into a neurotransmitter. Without choline, the brain doesn’t function properly.
Everyone should read what KD has to say on this, pretty informative and good!

And this is from earlier
The medical industry doesn’t want you to read this.
Nor does the food industry.
But you should read it, and let it sink in.

I strongly encourage reading it and all links he provides.
I would like to put in a plug for Dr. John McDougall. Just a few weeks ago, because of advancing Rheumatoid arthritis…
...I could not open or close my hands and barely walk. In the course of just over two weeks, the food plan that Dr. McDougall put me on has completely taken every bit of pain away and I am totally pain-free for the first time in over three years.
If you are suffering from what modern medicine would call “autoimmune disease”… Please take a moment and visit his website… I am walking proof as well of thousands of others that it works....:)!

God Bless.
I love eggs.
I have two every day but no red meat. Mother similar; she is 99 now.
I pay very little attention to these studies.
One day they say “X” is bad for you.
The next day another study says “X” is good for you.
You can lead the healthiest lifestyle, jog, eat healthy foods, and all that, and have a heart attack at age 58 because you have bad genetics.
Or, you can get run over by a bus.
I don’t care. I am eating and drinking what I want, and they can all kiss my butt. Doesn’t mean I have to be a pig or obese, but if I want a cigar and a tumbler of whiskey, I am doing it.
And some eggs, fried in olive oil, covered with black pepper and crushed red pepper, cooked until the edges are brown and crispy, eaten with toasted Italian bread spread with real butter, not margarine.
I eat one or two eggs every day and my cholesterol level has dropped 80 points over the past 2 years.
Dr. Atkins, who was a cardiologist, said that dietary cholesterol does not get absorbed by the body. His theory was that the body manufactures cholesterol when it’s nutrient deficient because cholesterol acts like an anti-oxident. And most of the good vitamins are fat soluable not water soluable. So people who go on low fat diets end up with high cholesterol because they don’t get the nutrients their bodies need.
My cardiologist looked at my lipid panel with the 51 HDL when I asked him what I could do to get it higher. He said "choose different parents".
Yay!! We bought 6 baby chicks for eggs in February. Hoping for our first eggs late June or so. Yummmmmm!
The yolk stigma concerns cholesterol. And whether or not the digested cholesterol impacts the effective levels in the bloodstream.
Umm...78.
