STORY AT-A-GLANCE
In 2015, egg restriction was eliminated from the U.S. dietary guidelines due to lack of evidence that cholesterol from eggs cause heart disease. Now, a new study is again urging people to avoid eggs
The study analyzed data from six studies with a median follow-up of 17.5 years, and claims to have found a dose-dependent relationship between egg consumption and cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality
Health and nutritional experts have weighed in on the study, pointing out its multiple flaws. For starters, the researchers claim eggs cause CVD by raising your cholesterol, but higher egg intake was actually related to lower LDL (so-called “bad” cholesterol associated with CVD)
Several meta-analyses have also refuted the claim that egg consumption raises your risk for CVD
Eggs contain valuable vitamins and minerals, including selenium, vitamins B2 (riboflavin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B7 (biotin) and B12, high-quality protein, iodine, vitamin D, zinc, omega-3 fats, lutein, zeaxanthin and choline
