Participants who fell into the weekly category of egg consumption, that is, they consumed one to six eggs per week, had a 29% lower risk of dying from cardiovascular disease and a 17% lower risk of dying from any cause compared to those participants who ate eggs never or infrequently. There was no statistically significant association between egg consumption and deaths due to cancer.
Previous research has observed a higher risk of mortality with egg consumption for those who have high cholesterol,” said Wild. “For this reason, we also explored the association between egg consumption and mortality in people with and without dyslipidemia (clinically diagnosed high cholesterol). We found a 27% lower risk of CVD-related death for participants with dyslipidemia who consumed eggs weekly, compared to their counterparts that consumed eggs rarely or never, suggesting that in this study cohort, the presence of dyslipidemia does not influence the risk associated with egg consumption.

We've been lied to for decades about nutrition.
I ate 4 yesterday, So Im good for a month.............
I average about a half dozen per week.
Back in the 90s we were told if you ate eggs you’d die a horrible death.
Eggs are in the news a lot lately.
Then, my risk should be down about 450% this week alone.
I eat at least 2 every day. I wish they were cheaper.

The Japanese have an easy solution to many cardiovascular problems. They eat “natto”, which are fermented soy beans.
Natto is often considered an acquired taste because of its powerful smell, strong flavor, and sticky, slimy texture. However, its healthy component, called nattokinase, found in the fermentation slime, is odorless, tasteless, and usually put in a hard shelled capsule which is easy to swallow.
And is readily available online, as well as being inexpensive.

Nattokinase (NK), known as a potent fibrinolytic and antithrombotic agent, has been shown to have antiatherosclerotic and lipid-lowering effects.
The lipid-lowering effect of NK was more prominent in subjects who smoked, drank alcohol, and subjects with higher BMI. Regular exercise further improved the effects of NK. Co-administration of vitamin K2 and aspirin with NK produced a synergetic effect.
No noticeable adverse effects associated with the use of NK were recorded.
May I gently suggest anyone do some looking about hens fed on soy and cornmeal vs wild foraging and superior feed?
Eggs from soy and corn fed hens are too full of Omega 6. Inflammation and illness can occur from eating too many of these eggs without balancing Omega 3 in other foods, or eating better eggs to start.
That is all.
Cheers.
The link between heart disease and dietary cholesterol has come under increasing scrutiny. The Framingham Heart Study eg, which is a longitudinal gold standard for such research, after years of data gathering, found no relationship between heart disease and red meat consumption.
Now eggs are exonerated. Unquestioning acceptance of opinions offered under the guise of “science,” which turn out be debunked, are one reason why RFK Jr should be given a respectful hearing when he raises an issue. He may not be right all the time, but it is always right to ask the question.

I remember the good old days, back in the 1970s and 80s when I was a kid, when eggs were supposed to be bad for your heart.
I eat more than a dozen a week. Love them, they make a great part of my morning breakfast, and I use more in baking. And butter, I use a lot of that too. And, well, beef, have been each morning and a least a beef snack in the afternoon.
