in2jumping 0 #1 December 23, 2011 I was cooking breakfast the other morning and I started fixing my usual, 4 eggs and a couple pieces of whole wheat toast. I break open 4 eggs into the pan, popped in the toast, walked around the corner to throw out the egg shells, noticed the garbage was full so I ran it outside and then come back to tend to my eggs and this is what was looking up at me.

Yes 4 eggs do contain quite a bit of cholesterol, but like sfzombie stated is a throwback from old studies. The Atkins diet is proof of this were peoples cholesterol profiles actually improves on this diet. I have a great cholesterol profile last time it was check about 8 months ago (I am 44 years old). I eat a very high fiber diet (30 to 50 grams a day eating lots of green veggies and supplementing with Metamucil) and avoid fiberless processed carbohydrates and simple sugars whenever I can, which I think is an important key to a healthy cholesterol profile. Actually fiberless processed carbohydrates and simple sugars is probably the main key to the obesity and diabetes epidemic in our country right now. So there is probably different ways/diets to control and keep your cholesterol at a healthy level, but I enjoy my eggs and the fatty tasty yokes, especially when they are smiling at me.
