Does an egg really have more cholesterol than a Big Mac? We crunch the numbers to find out!   Dr. Neal Barnard joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to examine the surprising amount of cholesterol found in eggs and whether eating them puts your health in jeopardy.   Plus, the Doctor's Mailbag is opened to answer more viewer questions:   - Can eggs cause diabetes? - Can plant-based food raise your cholesterol? - How long can your body store vitamin B12? - What are the best vegan foods for lowering cholesterol? - Does eating fat cause the body to produce more cholesterol? - And many others!   This episode of The Exam Room™ Podcast is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg’s passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation.   If you have a question you’d like to ask the experts on the show, tweet it to @ChuckCarrollWLC using #ExamRoomLive.   — — — Gregory J.
