- People who eat an egg a day are no more likely than those who rarely eat eggs to have high cholesterol, heart attacks and strokes or to die prematurely, a large study suggests.
Eggs are a primary source of dietary cholesterol, but they also contain high-quality lean protein and many vitamins, the researchers note in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Studies investigating the link between eggs and heart disease have offered mixed results, with some pointing to a protective effect and others suggesting high cholesterol intake - whether from eggs or other foods - does increase heart disease risks.
The largest study included many participants from Asia and Africa, where people typically consume high-carbohydrate diets in which eggs are least likely to be harmful to cardiovascular health, Dehghan said.The American Heart Association recommends keeping consumption to one egg a day, or two egg whites. But the AHA also advises people to scramble eggs, not fry them, to avoid adding unhealthy fats.
