Good news! According to http://www.eggs.ca, a Harvard study found no
significant link between eating eggs and developing cardiovascular
disease in healthy individuals. More good news! In June 2004,
researches from the University of Connecticut found that eating eggs
every day does not impact the cholesterol particles in the blood most
likely to cause heart disease. The study can be found here:
http://www.eggs.ca/pdf/HerronJune2004metabolism.pdf. You need Acrobat
Reader to view the article. Other interesting egg research links can
be
found at http://www.eggs.ca/nutrition/research/research.asp. At only
70
calories, great nutrition, versatility, and low cost, it appears eggs
are a frugal choice.
