Cholesterol studies pushed sunny side, but egg research came from industry funds
- LinuxBender 7y agoDietary cholesterol is at most 25% of your serum cholesterol. Your cells and your liver will make up to 4G per day as required. There is no such thing as good or bad cholesterol. It is just a transport mechanism. People tend to conflate high LDL comprised of small dense particles with high LDL in general. If your LDL is high, then your doctor should be getting you a low-density lipoprotein spectrum graph. If the small dense particles are high, then you need to find the root cause, which is typically inflammation and most commonly from insulin resistance or an infection. Eat all the eggs you want. They are the second most efficient form of protein next to human breast milk. They also contain a wide range of vitamins and amino acids that are important for good health.
