      eat egg Will it increase cholesterol?

      “"Eating eggs can increase cholesterol" seems to have become a common sense ,many elderly Therefore, I dare not eat eggs, especially egg yolks. In fact, this statement is not entirely correct. Studies have proven that eggs also contain high-density lipoproteins that can remove cholesterol from blood vessel walls.

      USA cancer Dr. Harmon and Dr. Garfink of the Society conducted a survey on the eating habits of 800,000 people over a period of 6 years and found that eating eggs does not necessarily increase the cholesterol content in the human blood. According to Boston physician Berman, he developed a weight-loss diet for more than 400 overweight police officers, which included asking them to eat several eggs a day. Eight years later, no one among the more than 400 police officers was found to have elevated blood cholesterol levels, nor was there a single case of heart disease. Researchers have discovered that the nutrients in eggs can restrict each other. Egg yolk is rich in antioxidants coronary heart disease Lecithin with anti-cancer effects, as well as trace elements such as zinc and selenium with anti-cancer effects, help the body fight cancer and prevent coronary heart disease.

      People only know that eating eggs can raise cholesterol, but they don't know that eggs also contain ingredients that can remove cholesterol from blood vessel walls. An egg (about 50 to 60 grams) contains about 234 mg of cholesterol, which is combined with protein to form lipoproteins. Lipoproteins contain what is commonly known as “good cholesterol””
