Another Egg Thread

[Frederick Foresight]

No, but I don't have a problem with high BP or cholesterol. Currently I'm eating about 8 per week. I would think more than 3 daily wouldn't be the best for long term heart health.

They keep moving the goalposts, though, don't they? A couple of years ago, a study kicked eggs back into the dungeon:

I wrote to my go-to science guy, who said that food frequency questionnaires are notoriously unreliable. That being said, he thinks it would wise to restrict eggs to 5-7 a week. I was eating 9 at the time that I wrote him late last year. After reading his email, I immediately reduced my intake to 3 a week, and am now gradually bringing it back closer to 7.

Until the next study...

It depends on how much I had. If was just an egg on a sandwich or something like that, I can't say I really noticed anything crazy. But when I went through periodic phases where I was eating egg white omelets every day, I noticed that my stomach did not like that at all. And the longer I did it, the worse I felt.

You need to limit your consumption of eggs. Anything in excess can be bad and excessive consumption of eggs can lead to bad cholesterol levels. Even though I love to eat eggs, I don’t eat on a regular basis.

Egg futures?


Yes. It is available.
You can trade it from Dalian Commodity Exchange.

I don't have it in the morning either. I prefer a hard-boiled egg as an afternoon snack with a couple of tablespoons of beans, my small homemade trail mix of walnuts, roasted pumpkin seeds and raisins, and an apple. Hits the spot.

Big, big difference in factory farm eggs +organic/home grown eggs.
I also like whole grain granola. But NEVER underestimate the power of the cereal +grain kings to dis eggs .
Even the color + taste of homegrown eggs differ much from factory farm eggs.
One medical doctor said '' I dont like an apple a day/ I like 2 apples a day''

I remember reading long ago that 1 out of 4 people who eat eggs will get really high cholesterol levels from doing so.

Thanks for the link.
2 or 3 obvious flaws in that ''study''
1} Who paid for it??And why was that omitted ??
2] Broadbrushing ''red meat'' is a big error. Looks like they ignored wild game.
3] Its a matter of public record, doctors [@ first] recommended tobacco.
One heart surgeon noted ''i dont know why some people that eat a lot of bacon have heart trouble + about half of them that eat bacon ,lots of fat, do not have heart trouble.{Not an ad for bacon/LOL}

Thanks. MS is a great state. Its known to have the most overweight people in US. I do listen to MS public radio, when in range. Rednecks tend to report news better also/LOL.
WE also have to consider the WMT warning label.......'' sorry for the high price of eggs $00.70 per 6 eggs '' + the organic egg kings make you buy 12 /LOL,
