Nick Norwitz, a doctorate student at Harvard University, found that contrary to the beliefs of many experts, his cholesterol levels actually dropped. After the month-long experiment that saw him eat the equivalent of 24 eggs per day his low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, or 'bad' cholesterol, fell by 18 percent.
Experts have demonized cholesterol in eggs for decades, warning that eating them may cause a surge in LDL levels and raise the risk of complications.
Dr Norwitz has a PhD in human brain metabolism from the University of Oxford and is completing his medical doctorate at Harvard University.

APOB is what my husband is watching
McDonalds? It takes five minutes to make a scrambled egg on a toasted muffin or bread. McDonalds? Really? Save some money.
Back to butter because the fake stuff makes me sick.
The person hates to cook, not about the money.
A neighbor couple is 96 and 95 years old. They eat eggs daily for breakfast, plus have eggs several other times a week (deviled eggs, egg salad, avolemono soup, etc.). Neither of them take any medications.
I always get the blue and green ones from a local egg gettin’ place.
My wife had a heart attack a month ago. Her LDLs are 72. HDLs 52. Total cholesterol 193. So much for low cholesterol being safe.
Basically.
The correlation between plaque and cholesterol is no different than that of carbon dioxide and atmospheric temperatures:
It’s anti science BS, but try telling that to someone who’s been on statins for 20 years...
This guy could be the one to drive a stake in the lipid hypothesis once & for all...if he can find a house of study & funding in a hostile environment deeply immersed in the Medical Industrial Complex...the same one which drove the plandemic and feeds all medical fears - heart disease, alzheimer’s, cancer, ‘disease x’, etc. - today.
Well that is a much more accurate measurement instead a broad LDL number. The LDL is incomplete because of the different types of LDLs. Of course most doctors don’t know this (mine doesn’t). It is particle size that causes problems. The smaller the LDL, the more likely it will stick to an artery wall. Statins do nothing for these because statins gobble the larger puffy benign LDL particles.
Interesting health ping.
Most of the cholesteral in the egg is the yolk, but I have read that by eating the whole egg digesting and using the egg’s cholesteral is aided, as opposed to only eating the yolk. And agg whites alone have much less nutritional benefit:
Vitamins: The yolk contains all of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as thiamin (vitamin B1) and vitamin B12.
Minerals: The yolk contains most of the phosphorus, iron, zinc, copper, and manganese.
Antioxidants: The yolk contains lutein and zeaxanthin, which protect the eyes from harmful sunlight and reduce the risk of cataracts and macular degeneration.
Choline and selenium: The yolk contains choline and selenium.
Protein: The yolk contains almost half of an egg’s protein.
Fat: The yolk contains most of an egg’s fat, which is mostly unsaturated and helps the body absorb other nutrients.
Calories: The yolk contains three-fourths of an egg’s calories.
I can remember my older brother teaching me how to eat eggs raw...through a tiny pin hole. I was a dumb 6 year old girl!!
So you're the green eggs and ham guy that book was about.
A great movie.
We have 14 chickens. Can’t eat the eggs fast enough but I bake ,and eggs are usually included. Any eggs left over are freeze dried and powdered for future use.
I occasionally will scramble up to 10 eggs at once and when the price was good would buy my eggs in the Walmart 5 dozen box, but 700 eggs in a month would put you off eggs.
A chef who would serve them in their total variety of ways might make it doable.
Back in the ‘80s this place I worked at had an incredible Sunday Brunch buffet - it was truly a work of art. But this one guy would order a dozen eggs over easy, eschewing the elaborate fare.

Is the Subway guy still around?
Seems I remember he had bad online viewing habits. Kids, or something.
There’s much truth to your statement. All this health crap advice we’ve been told is garbage.
The story says eggs do not hurt cholesterol, well that’s been know for years.
Remember when the Adkins diet first came out? The so called experts about wet their pants over that one. Now doctors recommend it.
And I too eat lots of salt. My body craves it. And we eat lots of red meat.
