Eggs have a significant benefit to our health in the fact that they are a great source of vitamins A, B and D along with a perfect source of protein. The fact is that it is what you use to prepare your eggs such as heavy butter, oils and unhealthy fats...That is what makes your eggs so bad for your body, not the egg itself.
Key Takeaways:
- Most of the cholesterol in your blood is actually made by your liver and results more from saturated and trans fat than from dietary cholesterol.
- Eggs contain many valuable nutrients and lots of protein, but relatively little saturated fat.
- Eating bacon or white bread with your eggs can indeed be unhealthy, but you can also prepare eggs with vegetables, herbs and spices for a healthier breakfast.
"From what we know today, here's the bottom line: for most people, an egg a day does not increase your risk of a heart attack, a stroke, or any other type of cardiovascular disease."
