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. Read on for more on what the scientists discovered, and for more pressing news about your breakfast, make sure you know why Science Says It's Dangerous to Drink Your Coffee This Way.
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. "Diet is a known and modifiable factor that contributes to the onset Type 2 diabetes, so understanding the range of dietary factors that might impact the growing prevalence of the disease is important."

Lol!!!
Biggest bullshyt is that diabetes type 2 is diet related. Diet around the world has not changed that much in 100 years. What has changed is people are exercising less.
I cured my border line diabetes by quiting my full time sedentary job and gradually implementing 30 miles of walking every week. Guess what blood sugar is normal, lost excess weight, blood pressure under 125/80. My diet is worse than before. I eat more donuts and cookies now. Makes no difference in blood sugar levels.v

“Breakfast cereal doesn’t taste like it used to,...”
It’s the tuna, don’t put tuna on your cereal.
Eggs! They got Paul Newman, and now they are coming for you!
I think they should be concerned about stinky tofu!!!
Probably some industry that makes artificial egg products.
A study concerning a chinese food source. God knows what was in the food those people we’re eating. NEVER trust any food from China.
Correlation is not causation.
Who paid for the study?

The National Organization of Chickens
Anything in excessive amounts is going to be bad for you.
That even includes our good friend Water.
I knew of an older guy, a very nice fellow with mild mental issues who loved drinking water all day long. We counselors were supposed to closely monitor his intake.
During a weekend overnight shift, a new staff fell sleep.
This client spent hours in the house kitchen drinking water.
The Real Problem: All that water diluted his levels of salt.
The Result: This elderly client passed away later that morning.
The NOC.
LOL
They are tasty and healthy for you. Concerns around cholesterol are moot, for as long as you don't have over 1,000 to 1,500 mg of cholesterol, your body has to produce the rest each day.
Additionally, Cleveland Clinic did note the lecithin that foods like eggs have can create TMAO (trimethylamine-N-oxide), which for meat eaters and the gut bacteria that gets favored with such a diet creates the problem (vegetarians don't have those colonies). However, the same studies showed having olive oil or balsamic vinegar in the same meal temporarily stopped the TMAO activity by those same bacteria. Consequently, we try to have a little with our eggs.
I do not believe diabetes has ever been tied to egg eating in the past. I doubt that association, at this time.

LMAO
How about in a tuna-colada?
Mammals have been raiding nests since mammals began. Reptiles have been doing it since reptiles began.
I fail to see the problem with eggs.
I have been averaging 18-24 eggs a week since I started raising chickens at age ten.
It the height of my "chicken farming" I had about 50 laying hens and provided meat and eggs for our family and even sold a few dozen from time to time.
I got the feed by working for a local farmer.
My health is excellent for an old dude of 16 lustrums {or lustra if you are a one eyed, John Wayne, Latin expert}.
