The study outlined the fact that the intake of an additional 300 mg of dietary cholesterol per day can increase the risk of incident cardiovascular diseases.
Buttery eggs with bright yellow yolks have been a breakfast staple across the globe for years. Yet, debates on whether eggs are good or bad for the heart have been raging the internet. The reason? A new study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, states the risk of contracting a heart disease increases with increased consumption of eggs. It adds that consuming even half an extra egg per day can up the chances of cardiovascular diseases that can ultimately be fatal.
The study involved 30,000 adults and was run for over 17 years. To be precise, it outlined the fact that the intake of an additional 300 mg of dietary cholesterol per day can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
It stated: "Cholesterol is a common nutrient in the human diet and eggs are a major source of dietary cholesterol."
Wait a year and there will be a counter report. Sticking with eggs.
