Dietary cholesterol does not have the impact on serum cholesterol that was thought. In fact, eggs are shown to be actually good fats. You actually need some cholesterol anyway, it is very protective. Now, fitting them into your diet macros is another issue. Any food, no matter how healthy, if it puts you over your calorie needs, you will gain weight if this is something you do not want to do. -------------- Strength and Honor!
	2006/04/15, 04:51 PM Eggs are one of the healthiest protein sources out there....I eat upwards of 10 who eggs a day.... We're now beginning to realize that not all cholesterol is bad....not all fats are bad....and so forth.... I believe bb1 posted a study a while back about eating 2 whole eggs daily didn't raise cholesterol or other markers ....
