Are Eggs Healthy or Dangerous?
Jim Goetz
There has been a debate for quite some time on the fact of eggs being healthy or not. Some say eggs have high amounts of cholesterol in the yolk and therefore negatively affects your cholesterol levels. However, a plethora of research has shown dietary cholesterol does not significantly effect your total cholesterol levels. Furthermore, increasing research has shown cholesterol levels do not cause heart disease. Those on statins live shorter than those who are not on statins. Those with low cholesterol levels may have an increased incidence of Alzheimers disease and other degenerative neurological and hormonal disorders.
The thing about cholesterol is that is forms hormones in the body such as pregnenalone, which converts to cortisol, DHEA, testosterone and a plethora of other hormones. When individuals go on fat free diets and get their cholesterol super low, hormone function is decreased and activities of daily living may change.
The egg can be broken down to the egg white and the yolk. The egg white is mostly protein with some B- vitamins. There's also another substance in it called, alvidin. This protein binds the B vitamins, decreasing their bioavailability. The biohack to increase absorption of the B- vitamins (if you are looking for B- vitamins from your egg, is to heat (cook) the egg.
The egg yolk (that yellow stuff so many discard), is chock filled with nutrients. The egg yolk contains far less protein than the whites but does in fact have a higher ratio of leucine, the amino acid responsible for protein synthesis in the body and is an essential amino acid.
46% of the yolk is oleic acid (omega- 9 found in olive oil), 38% saturated fat and 16% polyunsaturated fat. The polyunsaturated fat ratios depend greatly on how the chicken was raised. If a chicken is fed grains, the ratio of omega-6 will be far higher. This is pro-inflammatory. If the chicken was pasture fed, the amount of omega-6 will be reduced.
Egg yolks also contain catotenoids (lutein and zeaxanthin) (improves vision) and they are a huge source of choline (numerous benefits).
Some believe that eating eggs causes heart disease. There
