Egg Advice, Part 1
When Daddy sent me his
essay on eating eggs for this week's lunchtime series, I sent him back
the question I've been wondering about for months --- how many eggs can
we safely eat in a week? Like many other people, I had heard that
eating too many eggs caused high cholesterol.
Daddy --- and numerous websites
like this one --- debunked that myth. Eating cholesterol
doesn't raise your cholesterol. Government health agencies are
now putting no limit on the
number of eggs you should eat in a week. Good timing since those
girls are laying up a storm! Guess we can poach some eggs in our
tomato sauce for lunch today.
But there are still some problems with eggs. Stay tuned this week
for an analysis of the problems and solutions.
