Are eggs really unhealthy?

7 posts in this topic

Hey guys, I've been eating 3 boiled eggs everyday for about a month now, then one day whilst listening to a video by a vegan Youtuber, he says "eggs can cause heart disease". So, now I'm a bit concerned about my overall health and well being.  So I scrolled along the internet and saw articles by Dr.s, sometimes saying they do and sometimes saying they don't. I'm so confused. :/

But, at the same time I remembered Leo is someone I would consider to be well informed, knowledgeable and healthy. But, he eats 3 eggs(sometimes more) so surely there can be nothing wrong with them. Additionally, if we don't take eggs where do we get out b12 from? I'm aware of the fact that we can take supplements, but surely they're going to be bad for us. Which is why I don't like taking supplements, since I like to keep my diet as natural as possible.

You have stumbled upon the dogmatic tribalism of food. Welcome. i hope you'll enjoy your stay.

I'm sorry I can't quote any studies or post a well researched answer.

But what I know is that eggs have small amounts of almost every nutrient/vitamin, in addition to choline which is a precursor to acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is the learning transmitter. Also protein.

That dietary cholesterol can increase is a myth from 1980. Egg yolks have cholesterol, but also the vitamins.

@The Monk On the contrary in my opinion based on careful research free range eggs are one of the healthiest foods on the earth!

Which is correct however animal products are not "designed" for the human body. What happens inside isn't optimal and efficient in the long run. Plant foods on the other hand work in perfect synergy with the human body especially fruits.

What do you mean by "designed"? Our body has adapted to be able to digest a variety of different foods, we are actually one of the most adaptable species on this planet, it's quite fascinating :D
