I try to get one or two whole eggs in a day. Each has 148 mg of useful choline, and our choice of eggs has 225 mg of Omega-3 fats, too. You can even find some with 660 mg of Omega-3 (All Star eggs).

This potentially high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Now keeping a new list (“Common/Top Issues”) for conditions expected to only concern at least 1% of the population. Ask to be on either the “Common/Top Issues” or “Everything” list.

Please email or private message me if you want on or off of a list and of which list you desire.

Oh, eggs are good now.

Nothing like settled science by the experts, right?

Eggs have some of the best proteins and fats in them.

I was told years back eggs would kill me. Think it was the same years as another ice age and ozone depletion and all the other predictions that didn’t come true. I have lost faith in science.

There is conflicting evidence as to whether egg consumption is beneficial or harmful to heart health.

IOW, we were wrong and now have to eat crow and don’t want to admit it.

One thing I’ve learned is that if you live long enough, you’ll see every possible food declared deadly and then eventually healthy.

I don’t put much stock in any of it. My Dad ate two fried eggs every morning until they finally killed him at age 89.

Can someone explain to me why people only eat the egg whites? The yolk is the healthiest part of the egg.

A few months ago in one of these egg threads, I learned that when making hard boiled, if you drop eggs into boiling water they will peel effortlessly. That revolutionized my egg experience. :)

Thanks to who ever posted that.

Many recipes recommend putting cold eggs in cold water, bringing to a boil, and then turning off the heat.

[BiglyCommentary]

I always did that, doesn’t work. The shock of the hot water separates the shell.

I’ve always ignored the cholesterol kooks. Most of what they have said is just wrong.

I’ve read that the three most nutrient dense foods are—in no particular order
canned fish: sardines anchovies herring
bivalves: mussels clams oysters
eggs: pasture raised—orange as possible

What would you say are the three most nutrient dense foods?

Thanks! (Just when the price on eggs goes up!)

This from the same people who claim untested vaccines are all good at fighting a pandemic too.

I’ll never trust a doctor 100% again - ever.

Love eating eggs most every day.

Pictured: eggs with garlic, Thai peppers, and onions, morning glory with peppers and garlic (called "pak boong fai daeng"), roasted pork shoulder, and jasmine rice. Very typical breakfast over here.

Anyone else here old enough to remember when the the “experts” said that eggs and butter would kill you?

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

No crow, eggs!

That is a good way. I like to bring water to boil and put the eggs in with care. Lower the heat a bit to simmer. 9 minutes. Drain then put cold water in the pot. One egg in the morning with fruit and maybe toast is pretty darn good. Used to be cheap....
