7 benefits of eating 3 eggs a day!!

2. Cholesterol
The biggest criticism against eggs is that they contain high levels of cholesterol.
However, eggs contain high-density lipoprotein (HDL) which is actually essential for the body and brain.
HDL ensures the stability of every cell in the body and helps the body produce vitamin D and hormones such as testosterone, estrogen, and cortisol (2,3).
Unlike low-density lipoprotein (bad cholesterol), which sticks to the walls of blood vessels, HDL cholesterol cleans the inner walls of blood vessels and prevents atherosclerosis. It also reduces LDL levels and does not contribute to heart disease or stroke in healthy people, so you can eat as much of it as you want (4,5).
Regular egg consumption, however, may increase the likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease in diabetics (6).
So there you have it, the confusion surrounding the health of HDL from eggs and high cholesterol has been debunked (7).
To keep your cholesterol levels under control, it’s best to avoid eating excessive amounts of sugar, exercise daily, maintain a healthy weight, eat more vegetables, and quit smoking.
