Eating eggs daily helps in the overall development of the body. But it does not matter that the egg is healthy as well as nutritious. eggs contain cholesterol, which, according to the American heart Association (AHA), is not inherently 'bad' as your body needs it to build cells and make vitamins and other hormones.
Eggs are rich in cholesterol
The two main types of cholesterol are low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). While high levels of LDL cholesterol increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, HDL cholesterol, or 'good' cholesterol, protects the cardiovascular system. While eggs are rich in dietary cholesterol, they are not unhealthy and are different from the cholesterol present in foods, such as those high in trans fats and saturated fats.
Research has also found that eating eggs does not increase bad cholesterol levels or increase the risk of heart disease. A 2018 study published in the journal Nutrients found that eggs had a positive effect on HDL function and lipoprotein particle profiles in many individuals. While some see minimal change in cholesterol levels, in others both LDL and HDL increase, with the LDL/HDL ratio remaining unchanged
Diabetic patients should not eat so many eggs
According to a review published in the Canadian Journal of Diabetes, researchers examined whether eating 6-12 eggs per week affected heart disease risk factors in people with or at risk for type 2 diabetes. After reviewing previous research, they found that eggs had no negative effects on key factors such as cholesterol, insulin, or inflammation. Interestingly, some studies found an increase in good cholesterol (HDL) with egg consumption.
Eggs are rich in nutrients, with each large egg yolk containing about 186 mg of cholesterol, which is more than the recommended daily limit of 300 mg. egg consumption varies depending on individual health, dietary needs, and overall calorie intake. Is. Some research recommends limiting egg intake to 2-4 eggs per week for healthy populations and even more for people with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes.
Cholesterol patients should not eat so many eggs
Another study published in the Korean Journal of Food Science and Animal Resources found that eating 2-7 eggs per week helped maintain high HDL cholesterol levels and reduced the risk of metabolic syndrome, compared to 2 or more per day. Eating more eggs had no significant effect.
