Question
Ever since the 1960s, I haven’t eaten more than one egg a week because egg yolks have a
lot of cholesterol. Now my wife says she heard on the news that it’s okay to eat eggs every day. What do you think?

Answer
Listen to your wife. Here’s why she’s right: In the 1960s, doctors had solid evidence linking
heart attacks and strokes to higher levels of cholesterol in the blood. So it just seemed like
common sense to avoid foods rich in cholesterol, including eggs.
But in this case, common sense was wrong. In 1999, a large Harvard study found that people who
ate one egg a day were no more likely to have heart disease or strokes than those who ate eggs
less oft en than once a week. It turns out that much of the cholesterol in your blood is made by your liver, not absorbed from the food you eat. In other words, the cholesterol in food doesn’t affect the levels in your blood all that much.

In fact, saturated fats (found primarily in meat and dairy products) and trans fats (from the
partially hydrogenated oils used in commercial baked goods, stick margarine, and French fries)
do much more to increase blood cholesterol levels because they stimulate your liver to make more
cholesterol. Th e cholesterol in food isn’t completely harmless, and eggs do have a lot of it. But they also have a great many healthful nutrients, including B vitamins, folic acid, protein, and “good” polyunsaturated fats.

So here’s my advice: If you enjoy eggs, feel free to have an egg a day. I’d also look for eggs that are high in omega-3 fats. Some chickens are raised on diets high in these fats, which do get into their eggs.

Like you, I avoided eating eggs for decades. Now, my wife and I have eggs several times a
week — guilt free! But check the Nutrition Facts label on other foods that you buy. It will tell you
if the food is high in saturated fats and (oft en) trans fats. One caveat: If you have diabetes, there
is some evidence that an egg a day may not be a very good idea.

ik betuig een ontzettend respect aan de mensen die hun dieeten zo lang volhuiden. Ik ben na een maand of 2 niet trainen terug "geschoten" naar 10,3% vet en wil weer naar 6% toe... ben nu 4 dagen bezig met gezond eten (dus niet meer 3x per dag pizza enzo) en ik wordt nu al helemaal gek.

Zeer veel respect voor mensen die dit lang volhouden
