In this episode we shatter the shell of myths surrounding eggs, bringing to light the real deal about eggs and their place in the diets of those managing type 2 diabetes and prediabetes.

We beat misconceptions with hard facts, crack the case on cholesterol, unpack the nutritional benefits of eggs, exploring how they pack a punch with high-quality protein and essential nutrients vital for optimal health, and we debunk the sensationalized claims that have long tarnished their reputation.

And since we're always about evidence over opinion, we explore the latest research, including systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials, showing that eggs don't just offer a sunny side—they may also improve heart health markers such as HDL cholesterol, inflammation and insulin resistance.

By the end of this episode, you'll be armed with the evidence to embrace eggs as a delicious and nutritious part of your diabetes diet.
