Eggs

We have many people out there who don't believe that eggs are healthy for you and that's okay but on the other hand there are millions of people out there who eat eggs every single day now i ask you from my heart to be courteous and respectful to others not to knock them nor anyone else if they eat eggs let them eat their eggs so i'm going to keep this topic more conversational more practical i don't want to go into the deep science chemistry and research behind all of this there's a lot of different opinions towards egg yolks although to this day there is no true scientific data that shows a direct correlation from dietary cholesterol to blood cholesterol over the last three decades i have seen thousands of patients i have very dear colleagues who are cardiologists as well as internists i personally spoke with them and i wanted one of them to come on the camera with me but it didn't work out that way but i can tell you through their past experience and mine there are many many many people who eat at least a dozen to a dozen and a half eggs a week that have low cholesterol things have changed tremendously from the past cholesterol was the big thing but today they're using different tests that correlates to heart disease so here is the problem about the egg it's the cholesterol in the yolk there's no cholesterol in the white but only in the yolk approximately 200 milligrams but they're saying you shouldn't eat more than 300 milligrams per day so in that yolk there are so many important vitamins that help heal the body it has vitamin a d e and k along with omega-3 fats and very important antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin which are extremely important for your eye health our body is producing 75 of our cholesterol and we're only relying on that 25 percent from our dietary foods now think about this if we're taking in too much cholesterol our liver is going to produce less cholesterol if we're taking in too little cholesterol then our body is going to produce more so why are we letting our mind fight our body our body is a lot more intelligent than our mind i'm sure that if your body needs to do something it's going to do it correctly if you don't interfere with it cholesterol is a good thing it builds and maintains cell membranes it's essential for determining which molecules can pass into the cell wall and which cannot it's used in the production of the sex hormones estrogen and testosterone it's essential for the production of hormones released by the adrenal glands particularly cortisol it aids in the production of bile which helps digest fats it converts sunshine to vitamin d in the body it insulates nerves cholesterol is used by the body to make the linings of the nerves called the myelin sheath which is much like a protective coating around an electrical wire the brain is composed of cholesterol millions of people worldwide are given drugs to lower their cholesterol and now we wonder why they're having so many neurological issues big pharma is a multi-billion dollar business and i'm not here to knock down i'm here to make sure that you stay proactive for your own health i believe that the chemistry of an egg should be the way that it was produced and when we take things apart we can affect our own metabolism within our body yes chicken eggs are higher in cholesterol but the effect of egg consumption on blood cholesterol is minimal when compared with the effect of trans fats and saturated fats so if you have a history of heart disease i would always advise you to follow your doctor's recommendations so in my opinion the yolk is definitely a go it's very important to make sure you eat a healthy diet lots of vegetables get your exercise hydrate get your sleep and do all the proper things that's necessary to keep yourself healthy .
