Egg , eggs, eggs.....


My dad keeps getting on my case cause of all the eggs that i eat. This morning i went for a jog got a shower then made something to eat. I had 4 eggs only 1 yoke and toast. My dads like your Cholesterol has to be crazy stop eating all them eggs blah blah blah but after you hear it a hundred times like anything else you start to think about it. What is the deal with all these eggs and Cholesterol ? should i be worried ?

All cholesterol in an egg is found in the yolk—there is absolutely none in the white (albumen). I'm going to do an egg write-up that you can share with your father about the nutritional benefits of eating eggs. Keep your eye on Cursor's Corner.

The yolks are what contains the Cholesterol. One yolk a day won't hurt ya. If you continue to worry about it get your cholesterol checked routinely.

Everyday I eat 12 egg whites in my office and everybody says "you are gonna be sick, be careful with your cholesterole, you are gonne be allergic etc." I just nod and say nothing. Because I am bored of explaining people egg whites has only protein, not fat.

I sugggest you to just "nod" whenever somebody tells you the same thing.

I eat egg whites everday with breakfast. 4-8 depending on what else I eat. Educate your father...

The only complaints I get at home and in the office is that they smell. I try not to eat them in my office so people that stop in don't think I am blasting away in here.

Eating cholesterol doesn't raise cholesterol too much. Eating saturated fats and other bad fats is what really raises your cholesterol.

What is the deal with egg allergy? I did a search a while ago but didn't find anything interesting... Is it true that it can be developed?

You can tell you mom that my wife and I go through about six dozen eggs a week (and I don't plan on dying soon ). My HDL/LDL cholesterol is well under control.
