Eating just one egg a day increases your risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 60 per cent, according to a new study.

Australian researchers who studied a sample of 8,545 Chinese adults found a positively correlation between higher egg consumption and high blood sugar levels in Chinese adults.

Eggs are versatile and nutritious and are promoted as a 'healthy fast food' in the UK, but have proved the ultimate conundrum for diabetes researchers.

Previous studies have indicated that eating eggs can actually keep diabetes at bay, adding a confusing mix of scientific literature to the debate.

This new research suggests regular consumption of an egg a day – either boiled, scrambled, poached or fried – makes you more prone to the condition, which occurs when a person's blood sugar is too high.

Absolutely impossible for eggs to contribute to type 2 unless they started making eggs with carbs.

When he was diagnosed the Nurse/Dietitian said he should have 90 carbs per meal and 45 carbs per snack. It was difficult when he was a teenager but now he is a grown man and makes his own dietary decisions. He wears an insulin pump and he got his A1C down to 8. Which is great for him.

What about egg whites? Is the problem in the yolks, whites, or both? Need to know. I eat lots of whites to avoid the cholesterol.

Absolute BS. Eggs are the richest source of methionine, cysteine and protein. One of the most amino acid complete foods to counteract metabolic syndrome once carbs, processed and seed oils are removed.

The dietary takeover and reset is hot and heavy with propaganda.

Great to hear! The insulin pumps are a God-send. And I can’t even imagine what it’s like to tell a Type 1 child that they need to stay clear of the kinds of foods that chowed-down non-stop.

” I eat lots of whites to avoid the cholesterol.”

You may want to research that choice, but I’ll let others here go further on it.

That's a real shame that they went under.

I used to go to a good Chinese takeout place many years ago, and they had a menu with all kinds of different choices on it, but I sort of had a one-track mind about it, and would stick to just a few good things I was already familiar with.   I used to always get some kind of fried rice, and egg rolls with hot mustard.   I miss that place, too.

Yeah I remember all the stories about all the people that came down with diabetes for Hundreds of Years by eating eggs before 1978 when Insulin was synthesized and the food pyramid was changed to load people up on carbs, this at a time when FAT People were few and far between

My father ate bacon and two fried eggs (sunny side up) - and the eggs fried in the bacon grease - for breakfast just about every day of his adult life. Sundays he sometimes had sausage instead of bacon, but still eggs. He lived to 93.

I like them scrambled with butter (grass fed) myself. They really are the perfect food.

“Yes, and I expect meat to skyrocket soon. Enjoy this years beef and turkey! Like rice with a few bits of pork in it? Yay!”

Your comment of the upcoming delicacy for the deplorables of rice with a few bits of pork thrown in reminds me of my Dad saying that he had nearly gone blind looking for the “pork” in canned pork and beans.
