Eggs are not bad for you

Best snack for me (sometimes breakfast) is pancakes (made at home with free range eggs) with a filling.......stewed apple and raisins with a dollop of brandy in it, or add fresh berries (mmm ..blueberries).

Eggs are bad for you if your over 40 years old.

I heart disease eggs.

I didn't realize that someone had said more than 3 eggs a week was bad, ha! Not like it would've changed my habits anyway... I love a hot breakfast too much. :-D

Seems as though people here have never heard of good ol, cage-free hormone-free farm eggs. Americans need to shrug off the mentality and ask for better conditions and better quality. The FDA needs to be flipped on its head. Even the "cheap eggs" here in Europe are cage-free grass-fed, but in America I pay twice as much, and they're BLEACHED WHITE?

Eggs are 'NOT' good for you, it has been proven. Eggs may have protein. But overall they aren't anygood for the human body. With all of the drugs and pestisides that these farmers are pumping into animals. And some of these people want to sit here and say eggs are good for them. Eggs are 'NOT' good for anyone to digest into their blood and into their bodies. Nor is anything else that is generated or processed from that which is an animal.

it isn't a "chicken abortion" - as someone else said, it's a chicken period. the eggs are unfertilized. unless you specifically buy those eggs which come with a foetus in them in southeast asia...

aside from the cholesterol, I haven't noticed any of the articles which take this on as discussing whether or not more than 3 eggs a week will make you fat, which I imagine they most certainly will?

The point they should be trying to make is that people with high cholesterol should pay more attention to lowering consumption of saturated fats rather than reducing cholesterol intake. I'm sure reducing both is helpful though, too.

As for the whole egg thing... it seems like they just want to advertise for people to buy more eggs...

I'm sure next year the alfafa lobby will make us thing they are bad and then the following year alfafa will be bad...

Can't go wrong with B and E

This is good news, but it isn't new news.

Eggs are the best! Best way to start the day with a cheap and potent shot of protien.

Eggs are chicken abortions.

I'm a vegetarian and probably have at least six a week.

eggs with sharp cheddar cheese rolled up in a tortilla with a little tapatio sauce is great!

wow, you people are really poised to eat this up, so to speak. it's amazing how a single publicized study can override decades of research and common sense. eggs are filled with cholesterol. only a third may come from diet, as the article states, but that's still a pretty huge difference when you compare two eggs (142% daily recommended value) with no animal products (0%). Not to mention the saturated fat found in animal products promotes the body to produce more of its own cholesterol.

interesting that they don't bother mentioning who funds these studies...

eggs are only bad for you when they come from non-egg laying mamals.

I've never heard of 3 eggs being bad...but it's like everything else, one week they're bad, the next they're...
what blood77 said

I am sick an tied of this. First they're good, then they're bad, then good, then bad, good, bad.

Eat Organic eggs as well. Studies show that the vegetarian fed hens produce healthier eggs w/ better Omega3:6 fat ratios...

I eat at least 4/day. And I'm in perfect health.

My sisters and I checked this out a long time ago, she was a lacto/ovo, anyway if the whole egg is eaten then the lethicin softens the fats and they are not harmful.... eating the whole food is better than ..say, the whites only. That way all of the "stuff" you need to absorb it correctly would be in the food.

By the way lethicin is used in keeping chocolate soft.

It's found naturally in some body secretions that need to stay soft for a while!!!

i've been telling everyone for years this was a crock. i think i read while taking a dump some years ago and never looked back.

Anyone else think the picture was not eggs at first?

Awesome! Eggs are one of the bestest foods out there. How could they be bad for you?

Sweet, i love my eggs, have one pretty much every day.
One of the better foods, as long as you actually keep yourself fit-ish and not allow it to gather up.

Fried, boiled, mashed, scrambled, yummy.
Fried Egg on Toast is my personal favourite, usually have that each night. (that or boiled, then sliced)

2-3 a day baby!
don't forget to finish it off with some sugar-soaked cereal!
@credit...
I hear Hayek was born a 'tweener... discuss.

What about Salma Hayek's breast milk?

eggs are the best food ever.

I never really bought into that one anyway, but it's good to hear. Eggs are great.

There's another phrase to describe eggs -
chicken abortion!

it is good to hear that eggs are good for you because i love eggs

I love me some bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches in the morning!

I'm glad that it's a myth but i don't think it would really deter me from eating eggs even if it was true. why are eggs always the brunt of these sorts of things? poor eggs.

mmmm... eggs.

I love eggs...

What isn't a myth is that eating more than three eggs a week will make you smell like you've been eating rotten cabbage.
