Eat more eggs, they're an almost perfect food

I would say Vitamin K is more essential than Vitamin C in terms of having normal blood clotting regulation.

 

You're right, I misread him saying that he had trouble with proper coagulation and vitamin K would most probably just worsen the condition.

 

I eat 4 eggs per day eggs and oats best breakfast ever.

 

Vitamin C is more important for nutrition opposed to Vitamin K haha

 

@Sythe is it okay to "shotgun" my eggs and drink it raw from a glass?

 

This is terrible advice. Also from someone doing a lot of research in my studies i have to say you have terrible knowledge of how research works, how correlations and basically everything works. Will edit in debunking his arguments in parts when i have time

Edit:
Part 1: OK to start things off i will debunk the "proof" that OP gives to justify the high amount of cholesterol eggs have

@Sythe No offense but did you read this article you quoted (Most heart attack patients' cholesterol levels did not indicate cardiac risk) ? I was going to find some source to argue against your points but your own source did it for me which should be an indicator to people not to listen to this advice...

The article states: "75 percent of patients hospitalized for a heart attack had cholesterol levels that would indicate they were not at high risk fora cardiovascular event, based on current national cholesterol guidelines. Specifically, these patients had low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels that met current guidelines, and close to half had LDL levels classified in guidelines as optimal (less than 100 mg/dL)."

In short: They were not below average in cholesterol but below the recommended guidelines in america.
These guidelines consider under 100mg/dl to be an optimal level of LDL cholesterol, while the author you considered reliable states himself that these guidelines could not be correct:

"Almost 75 percent of heart attack patients fell within recommended targets for LDL cholesterol, demonstrating that the current guidelines may not be low enough to cut heart attack risk in most who could benefit," said Dr. Gregg C. Fonarow

Later the same article states (yes the same article im not joking) "the risk of cardiovascular events increases substantially with LDL levels above 40–60 mg/dL"

Also as of now i cant put up 100% proof of the dangers of cholesterol (really busy, but i will add more information later) However, if OP is wrong, and again no offence, then eating a dozen eggs a day would be an incredibly stupid thing to do and considering the non-existing evidence for the claims i would recommend nobody to eat more than 5/6 eggs a week.

TLDR: There is no proof that cholesterol is not dangerous, in fact the sources provided to back those claims actually only criticize the guidelines for LDL cholesterol levels to be too low, which is why 72.1% of admitted heart attack patients were considered to have good levels of LDL cholesterol. Again the same source also offers an alternative guideline half as high as the suggested one which would massively decrease the amount of people with a healthy level of LDL cholesterol. Please do no eat a dozen eggs a day and try to remain under 5 or 6 eggs a week instead. (more proof will be added soon)


Part 2: "Debunking" Saturated fats and rabbit expirement

There is no direct link between saturated fat and heart disease and never has been, maybe this confused you. Saturated fat increases LDL Cholesterol which in turn would then cause the heart disease. So not finding a correlation in a meta-analysis with 0 mention of the many options to reduce LDL cholesterol, really proves nothing. Person A could consume high saturated fats but consumes alot of fiber. Person B consumes low amount of saturated fats but very little fiber. In this study Person B would have similar or higher levels of cholesterol but does not prove anything.

Where you aware humans have a digestive system of a herbivore? Take a dog, a meat eater, and compare his digestive system to ours, its completely different.

The last part is just stupid claims with no evidence.

Part 3: The perfect food

Its great for energy? We get energy from caloric value there is literally no discrimination? It will make you strong? as will any balanced diet with enough protein.

You cant deny the egg does in fact have all the essential amino acids. Is it incredibly easy to get those from a magnitude of other sources however? Yes.

So the only thing to consider from there is if the accessibility of having all of them in 1 product is worse than the potential negative health impact from all the other aspects mentioned before.

That comparison with the embryo absorbing it tells us nothing aswell. Humans dont have problems processing natural plant-based proteins. In fact we have problems digesting animal-based proteins but thats whole new topic i dont have time for.


In conclusion:

Eating some Eggs in a balanced diet wont kill you, but don't be an idiot and eat a dozen a day..

 

I don't like eggs that much but i make myself eat them because of this.

 

I literally down 5-6 eggs a day with the yolk... no issues,.

 

Good or bad, I love eggs - spesh runny ones <3

 

Does someone really eat dozen of them per day? I eat always two in breakfast but that's enough for me.

 

Eggs are a source of high protein. In short Eggs are among the healthiest and most nutritious foods on the planet.

 

Hey, I've been counting macros for 2 years and from the research I've done, I wouldn't recommend eating more than 1 egg yolk per day. They contain the maximum daily recommended cholesterol and the yolk doesn't contain much protein. The egg whites contain the majority of the protein without the bulk of the cholesterol. So make sure if you're eating eggs, you opt for egg whites, but a whole egg a day aint gonna kill ya. Everything in moderation kids.

 

ya raw eggs are my favorite.

 

Yeah, eggs are a really great source of essential vitamins + protein. Been eating 3 a day ever since i started lifting. I pretty much have to cook them perfectly because i hate it when it's still gooey, even if it's just a tiny bit.

 

Im so hungover ide lick an asshole just for the chance to eat an egg sarnine with a runny yolk just now.

 

I never ate a yolk that's runny before lol, tried it and it's actually damn nice

 

Dippng a sausage in a runny yolk is one of the most under rated things in life.
