Given all of the well-known benefits to eating eggs—which range from boosting your immune system to helping you lose weight to improving your cognitive health—you may have wondered if it's possible to eat too many of them. After all, with 6 grams of protein, 5 grams of healthy fat, and lots of vitamins, the humble egg is among the most nutritious foods on the planet. But according to a study conducted by researchers from the University of South Australia, Qatar University, and the China Medical University, the answer is most certainly yes—and the results will surprise you.

The study, published in The British Journal of Nutrition, focused on nearly 30 years of data (1991 to 2019) for roughly 9,000 adults in China, where diabetes cases are on the rise. "Over the past few decades China has undergone a substantial nutritional transition that's seen many people move away from a traditional diet comprising grains and vegetables, to a more processed diet that includes greater amounts of meat, snacks and energy-dense food," explained Ming Li, MD, Ph.D, an epidemiologist at the University of South Australia.

I’m more worried about all the artificial ingredients they use nowadays. Breakfast cereal doesn’t taste like it used to, heck - even cocoa-puffs don’t leave chocolate milk in the bowl anymore!

Garbage study. Complete crap. Just read the abstract. If these guys used this methodology to tell me water was wet, I’d ask for a second opinion.

A laughable study. Chinese are changing their eating habits across the board, and the “study” looks at....eggs? How about flour? Sugar? Cakes? Nope! Not interested. Let’s just see if we can find a CORRELATION between eggs and diabetes.

Scientific misconduct!
