Eggs & Heart Health Are eggs bad for cholesterol levels?
The short answer is no.
The latest Heart Foundation guidance puts no limit on how many eggs healthy people can eat each week. The Heart Foundation state that eggs have a minimal effect on blood cholesterol levels and eggs are encouraged as part of a heart healthy eating pattern with a reminder to be mindful of what you choose to eat with them.
CSIRO research has also shown that eggs can be enjoyed on a daily basis. The CSIRO conducted a range of research, both in clinical trials and in a survey of more than 84,000 Australians, and found that egg consumption is actually linked to a better overall diet and a number of positive health outcomes.
