N=1. I was eating eggs daily. My cholesterol was high and my doc wanted to put me on statins. I said let me try diet and exercise. I changed it what I was eating (no more daily eggs) and 6 months later I dropped 50 points in bad cholesterol.
- jbotz 5y agoDid you do the exercise as well? There is a lot more evidence that exercise lowers your cholesterol than that eating eggs raises it. Not only is your anecdote N=1, but you also probably changed severak variables with controlling any of them.
- azinman2 5y agoI did do the exercise. I'm not sure of the exact timeline, because part of it was me eating heavy breakfast ham & cheese croissants, but I also was eating eggs leading up to my wedding as part of the slow food diet to lose weight. I don't remember at which points my cholesterol was measured, but I did stop doing the daily eggs.
