Is eating 16 cooked eggs a week okay?

[Whiskey]

Hey guys, just wondering how many eggs you can/should eat a week, I train 4 days a week and like to eat 4 cooked eggs before I start... Is that too many?

You hear a lot of stuff like the whole egg contains LDL so you shouldn't eat more than 3 a week, some people think that the egg contains HDL so I guess that would mean the more you eat the better...

lot of information out there that contradicts each other...

What do you think??

Regards.

Won't raise cholesterol in my experience but would not recommend so much long term.

For me, I think it lead to slight allergies after awhile leading to lethargy and also increases acidity in the body.

Though, I was having 6-8 a day.

He recommended a detox period as well after a month or so and to not have high amounts of eggs indefinitely.

I remember about a decade ago i ate 18 egg whites + 6 egg yolks a day for 7-8 days straight.  I got so bound up it was crazy.  Didn't shit for about a week.

Eggs raising cholesterol is outdated information-In fact, food in general raising cholesterol is outdated.

I have probably been eating 12 to 15 whole eggs a day for the past 5 years I and get my blood checked regularly.  I have never had any issues.  High cholesterol in people is a result of other factors not related to diet.

[tommywishbone]

It's fine. Lose half the yolks.

[keanu]

12 a day is fine.

[nasht5]

12 a day is fine.

yup, dozen boiled per day. Also enjoy raw eggs w/dash of tabasco sauce

[Ronnie Rep]

Used to eat 3 hard boiled eggs a day, before protein powder was popular!

What kind of factors? stress, genetic, lack of cardio training, too much alcohol? These sort of things?

Six whole eggs every day for breakfast.

Floating arms? Thought the standing relaxed pose back when was actually nearly relaxed... Hmm.

Eggs are natural and healthy. The egg cholesterol scare of the 80's was just a scam by the grain industry.
