"Eggs: Debunking the Cholesterol Myth and Promoting Heart Health"

A new study presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session suggests that consuming fortified eggs, enriched with nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and selenium, may not worsen cholesterol levels and could even improve heart health. The study found that participants who ate 12 or more fortified eggs per week showed no significant differences in their levels of "good" HDL cholesterol or "bad" LDL cholesterol compared to those who ate fewer than two eggs per week, and even showed numerical improvements in other markers of heart health. However, experts caution that the overall diet and cooking methods also play a crucial role in determining the impact of eggs on heart health.
