Eggs do not import cholesterol into
your body - Even two eggs a day
Let us consider some data ( I sent this some years ago,)
about eating eggs.
It
was Russian clinician Ignatowski who around 1900 who fed rabbits with milk and
egg and noted atherosclerosis in the arteries in a few weeks. So for the first time
Atherosclerotic plaques were produced scientifically. Using food
But
giving vegetarian rabbits food they do not eat normally (being
vegetarians) does not infer that it will be the same in animals used to
egg and milk.
Then
soon, probably instigated by the senior Dr. Antchkov, a young member
there N.W. Stuckey gave one group of rabbits muscle fluid as supplement,
the 2nd group egg
white as supplement and the third only egg yolk.
On
cutting up, only the egg group had atherosclerotic plaques in their blood
vessels(arteries).
This led to the world wide anti-egg craze in the next
100 years!
Ignored
was the fact that all three groups had been given animal material to eat.
Which could not therefore be used vs the egg if carnivores like us ate egg.
I
do not know why they did not experiment on carnivores. I may not have got
at the trials.
It
took years of counter research to get evidence in favor of eating egg.
Yet going on.
On
the other hand egg yolk has been shown to be able to produce atheromatic
plaques. Clear.
So
today, all, those who are susceptible, have had heart attacks, those who
have higher cholesterol values( the light weight stuff of low density) and many
at possible risk are told, not to take eggs by doctors.
(
My belief without 100% proof is that in the susceptible people, egg yolk does
elevate cholesterol as lowering of the blood level occurs with diet avoiding
egg.)
This
is sensible till proved otherwise.
Further
lowering bad cholesterols of people over the two decades, in addition to
dieting and exercising has clearly lowered deaths.
Opinion.
I
feel, after age 75 go ahead and eat your head off, if only to prevent you
having to look after the next generation falling ill as you reach 95 years of
age.
Cheers
to egg.
I
know my friend ate 7 egg hoppers back in the 1960s the Green Cabin stuff
with mus curry. Today he eats 2 eggs. But form 1972 he has walked 3 miles a day!
He keeps doing it in his late 70s.
Weight has never increased. Some reduction only.
Now
look at his bosom friend of that time. Being bigger, he ate 9 egg hoppers. He
kept gaining weight not doing 3 miles a day except by car, and in
his 40s got paralysed, died a few years later.
What
is sauce for the goose is not always sauce for the gander! Like most Asian do
not do well with rich diets becoming diabetic at least.
Cause
said to be due to the presence of a yet unfound insulting ‘ famine gene’.
Actually
they find Asians seem to get it with ‘ better’ more foods. The bodies of whites
are attuned to store up fat in the body for winter utilization.
