Eggs have gotten a bad reputation because the yolks are high in cholesterol. But cholesterol isn’t that simple. The more cholesterol you eat, the less your body produces. Science says up to 3 whole eggs per day is perfectly safe for healthy people.
Dietary cholesterol feeding suppresses human cholesterol synthesis measured by deuterium incorporation and urinary mevalonic acid levels.

What people are saying
Across the discussions, commenters explore how dietary cholesterol influences human cholesterol synthesis, with examples like mentions of the body's feedback system balancing intake and production, and debates on dietary myths versus scientific evidence. The tone reveals a mix of curiosity and validation, as participants reference studies, biological processes, and diet considerations, reflecting moderate engagement and potential impact on public understanding.
Most contributions acknowledge the findings, emphasizing that dietary cholesterol's effect on internal synthesis is significant or aligns with the study's conclusions.
Posts demonstrate moderate curiosity, with commenters discussing the implications of cholesterol regulation and misinformation about dietary cholesterol.
Discussions include references to the biological mechanisms and real-world dietary choices, showing a deeper engagement beyond surface reactions.
Comments suggest the research might influence dietary guidelines and perceptions about cholesterol, indicating perceived significance.
Abstract in brief
- The study investigated how different levels of dietary cholesterol (50, 350, and 650 mg per 2800 kcal) affect human cholesterol production, measuring this via deuterium incorporation into erythrocyte cholesterol and urinary mevalonic acid levels.
- Results showed that cholesterol synthesis significantly decreased when subjects switched from low to medium and high cholesterol diets, with urinary mevalonate excretion also dropping notably, indicating that dietary cholesterol can modestly suppress the body's own cholesterol production.
- The extent of cholesterol synthesis response was linked to the rate of synthesis during low-cholesterol diets, suggesting that humans regulate cholesterol production in response to dietary intake, regardless of their baseline plasma cholesterol levels.

@libertad_vegana @mbolo2002 https://t.co/pyaaNneKWb Precisamente de los huevos hay evidencia de sobra. Su relación con el colesterol se considera un mito. Por ejemplo: El cuerpo compensa mayor ingesta de colesterol con menor producción endógena.
