Topic: Science Says:EGGS Will Kill You Almost Just Like Cigarettes!

[FerminaDaza]

Science has discovered the opposite of the last thing it discovered. Doesn’t matter if it’s red meat, lean meat, all animal protein, soy, gluten, red wine, whiskey, one drink a day, or small amounts of dark chocolate…


Today, sadly, it is the delicious egg.

Worse still, it’s not just that the delicious cholesterol-laden yolk is bad for you, no no. It that they stiffen your arteries almost as much as smoking. Dr. David Spence, professor of neurology at Western University in London, Ontario, Canada, led the study. He elaborates: “People at risk of vascular disease should not eat egg yolks. Carotid plaque goes up steeply with age, so the only people who can eat egg yolks with impunity are those who know they will die young from some cause other than vascular disease.”


Spence and his team team collected data on more than 1,200 men and women, using ultrasound to first determine the amount of plaque their arteries. Participants were then asked about tobacco use, egg consumption (and other lifestyle factors like what medications they were on). The chilling results:

    Although artery plaque levels rose with age, both smoking and eating egg yolks sped up this plaque formation within vessels, the researchers found. Regular consumption of egg yolks sped up plaque deposits in arteries at a rate that was about two-thirds the rate seen with smoking, Spence said.

    People who ate three or more yolks a week had significantly increased plaque compared with people who ate two or fewer yolks a week, the team found. That makes sense, Spence said, since just “one egg yolk contains more than the recommended daily intake of cholesterol.”

Hmm,tsalap pa naman ng egg pag breakfast ...


Will this put you off eggs?

Or will you continue eating them with impunity until science discovers they’re good for you again?

if you want to live longer you have to go back and copy the lifestyle and diet of ancient times where people live for almost 800yrs old. they eat plenty of lean meat, eggs, wheat bread, and fresh milks.
 
but how about veggies? think my friend there are few greens on the desert.

mataas ang cholesterol ng eggyolk kung walang halong HDL (high density lipoproteins) commonly found sa fish e talagang talagang magkakaroon ka plaque sa artery at sedentary ang lifestyle 

yung iba di alam ang use ng HDL, ang trabaho ng HDL inaalis ang fats sa mga organ natin at inilalagay sa stomach or sa thigh kaya nagiging bilbil di porket kumain ka ng maraming HDL e papayat or healthy ka or maalis ang plaque

masarap ang eggyolk di ko aalisin

tsaka lahat naman ng pagkain kung di balance e may bad efect sa katawan

di mo maibabalik ang lifestyle na yan kase for almost 1.5- 2 Million years ago may mga halaman na extinct na sa panahon natin na di natin alam  baka napakataas ng anti-oxidants or may repair properties at iba ang climate noon sa ngayon the dessert we know was different million years ago

and nowadays you are lucky kung umabot ka ng 60 baka sa next gen 40 years old na stroke na

Share ko lng from the articel I read regarding this topic, para madinig naman natin ang side ng "EGG".

"Smoking has a direct effect on blood vessels and development of plaque, whereas with eggs, it's really an indirect effect: Eggs are part of the diet and the diet has an effect on overall blood cholesterol," said Dr. David J. Frid, a staff cardiologist in preventive cardiology at the Cleveland Clinic. "A high level of blood cholesterol can lead to arterial plaque, but there are so many factors that can affect your cholesterol above eating eggs. There's the rest of your diet, whether you're overweight, whether you exercise, genetics."

Instead, Frid suggested that eating a lot of egg yolks could represent an overall intake of high-fat, high-cholesterol foods. People who report eating a lot of eggs may consume unhealthy fare like sausages or grits along with them; those who eat egg whites only are particularly mindful of their saturated fat and cholesterol intake across the board. "The eggs could be a marker of people who have poor diet, rather than an actual characteristic," he says.

But egg consumption isn't entirely unhealthful, research suggests. One major study found that egg eating was associated with a rise in serum HDL levels -- the good, protective kind of cholesterol -- along with LDL levels, which clog arteries. Eggs are also a good source of vitamin D, according to Frid.
