    Hi I have herd so many things about eggs ranging from there good for you to there not good for you and that you should only eat 2 a week lately I have been loving them and I want to eat them every breakfast the way I cook them is crack one into a microwave egg cooker and in 30 seconds there ready to eat like a hard boiled but still a little runny sometimes I will eat them on there own with a little salt and pepper and other times on a piece of toast please let me know what is a good amount and what is not

    Take a deeeeeeeep breath after reading that.

    I'd say two a day based on no good scientific evidence, just personal tolerance.

    There was a period i forgot to eat eggs for a few months,my HDL went really low.That was the only change I made in my diet.I added back eggs to my diet,its normal now.My husband has hereditary cholesterol issues so I only give him the whites,keeps his ldl in check.So unless you have any cholestrol issues you are fine with the eggs everyday.

    For these reasons, dietary recommendations aimed at restricting egg consumption should not be generalized to include all individuals. We need to acknowledge that diverse healthy populations experience no risk in developing coronary heart disease by increasing their intake of cholesterol but, in contrast, they may have multiple beneficial effects by the inclusion of eggs in their regular diet.

    Soooooo, there are good eggs and there are not so good eggs. If you have a source for REAL free range eggs (like your neighbors hen's our your own hen house or just a local farmer) and can ensure the hens eat bugs and grubs then you have good eggs. A goo give away for a good egg is the color of the yolk. Super nutritious eggs have a yolk that is resembles and orange hue rathe than a yellow one. If you can find a local source for duck eggs, even better (although duck eggs do have more cholesterol so if you're concerned over that, perhaps do a bit more research).


    Duck eggs vs Chicken eggs
    Duck Eggs are an Alkaline producing food - Anti cancer food - much better. Farm Fresh eggs with a rich smooth orange yolk whether Chicken eggs or Duck eggs will surprise you if you have only experienced the colorless and flavorless supermarket versions. What most people do not know is that Duck eggs are far superior to Chicken eggs with the same taste and richer smoother consistency yet better than a chicken egg in many ways

    1. Duck eggs have twice the nutritional value of a chicken egg and stay fresher longer due to their thicker shell.
    2. Duck eggs are richer with more Albumen making cakes and pastries fluffier and richer.
    3. Duck Eggs have more Omega 3 fatty acids ..something you can actually see in the salted pickled eggs the Chinese love to eat. Omega 3 is thought to improve everything from Brain health to healthy skin and
    4. Duck Eggs are an Alkaline producing food, one of the few foods that leave your body more alkaline which is a great benefit to cancer patients as cancer cells do not thrive in an alkaline environment. Chicken eggs are an acid food leaving your body more acid.

    as many as you want. Heck Ron Swanson eats all the eggs and all the bacon. "You may have thought you heard me say I wanted a lot of bacon and eggs, but what I said was: Give me all the bacon and eggs you have."

    He also has a pyramid of greatness that's worth checking out.

    Talking about eggs reminds me of a song:

    "When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs
    Ev'ry morning to help me get large
    And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs
    So I'm roughly the size of a barge"

    Good old Gaston he was on the right track when it came to health! :tongue:
