Enjoy your Eggs again!
Found this tidbit that eating eggs doesn’t cause cholesterol levels to skyrocket like once thought:
Wendy Repovich, an exercise physiologist at Eastern Washington University in Cheney, Washington, who did her best to dispel several common nutrition misconceptions during a recent American College of Sports Medicine-sponsored health and fitness summit in Dallas, Texas.
“Eating eggs will raise your cholesterol.” This myth started because egg yolks have the most concentrated amount of cholesterol in any food, Repovich told Reuters. However, when eaten in moderation, eggs do not contain enough cholesterol to pose health risks, she said.
“Most people avoid eggs and probably if they have any kind of cardiovascular risk their physicians tell them to avoid eggs,” Repovich said. “But really, there aren’t a whole lot of studies that show that one or two eggs a day really make a difference to cholesterol levels.”

This is great nevus for me! I love a basic breakfast of toast, eggs and coffee. Just something about that brings me right back to my Childhood, my grandfather taking me to a local restaurant from the back door, through the kitchen and right to our table. the ordered us Eggs and Toast (with those small plastic squares of jelly you peel the foil off)
