    Last I checked teh cholesterol thing with eggs was rubbish. Not sure if that was a worldwide or UK study though.

    I swear you can't listen to doctors these days...looks like I see more eggs in my future :)

    Good man, most Doctors just parrot what they have been told in their brief 'nutrition' education.

    And this is based on Bad Science and the desire to treat symptoms and sell drugs, not to address the underlying issues.

    Take a statin to lower my cholesterol? I'd rather lick cyanide.

    I've not had an egg today, I am feeling mighty guilty ... ;)

    Doctors PRACTICE medicine. There are tons of studies going tons of different ways. Patients are overzealous to take pills instead of correcting the cause of the problem. There is a study saying genetics are the cause of obesity. Where did these genetics come from? 100 years ago the obesity rate wasnt what it is today... enough with the rant :blushing:

    Eggs: <3 'em

    Just please be sure to buy ethically raised farmer type eggs to get the true benefit - the commercially farmed eggs are NOT the same.
    Since I'm on the fence about the cholesterol argument, I purposely include 1 or 2 items that are "known to" help reduce cholesterol in my daily diet when I eat "suspect" level food like red meats or eggs
    google mark's daily apple there is a very nice read about cholesterol available there

    I love hard boiled eggs. Have you tried Eggies? You can boil them and not have peel them. The other upside si that you can scramble an egg and add spinach pepper and all kinds of stuff to switch it up a bit.

    Yep -- my doctor recommended that my breakfast should be three hard-boiled eggs each morning, with the caveat that I throw out two of the yolks, since they're really little cholesterol bombs...)

    I just figured out the nutrition in one egg and its actually very nutritious. For under 90 calories you get a satisfying snack and a good amount of protein(also low Carb)., It's relatively good once in a while- which is because of the high cholesterol in the yolk.

    Naturally occuring cholesterol, commonly referred to dietary cholesterol is healthy... I have three eggs per day at least three times per week... and I have extremely clean CHO!!!

    They also make a great 'bowl' for a light tuna or chicken salad of you take out the yolk (I don't like hard boiled yolk). No carbs needed then for bread or crackers!
