Abstract in brief
Research has not conclusively linked egg consumption to an increased risk of coronary heart disease, and eating eggs can raise both LDL (bad cholesterol) and HDL (good cholesterol) levels in some people, especially hyperresponders.
Most people (around 70%) experience little to no change or only a mild increase in cholesterol with high egg intake, and eggs can even help produce larger, less harmful LDL particles and shift LDL patterns toward a less atherogenic (plaque-forming) type.
Eggs also contain antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin that benefit eye health, especially for populations prone to issues like macular degeneration and cataracts, suggesting that dietary restrictions on eggs shouldn’t be applied universally.

@typename_nish @hyderabaddoctor @shashiiyengar I don’t measure the cholesterol intake as dietary cholesterol doesn’t increase the risk of heart disease.
