Thread: Whole eggs x4 - safe daily?

Personally, I'd go with 1 whole egg, and another 4 egg whites, but your choice.

you'll be fine eating 4whole eggs, I've been eating 4-6 whole eggs everyday for a looong time, i have had my cholesterol checked twice a year and it's perfect. Now I occasionally take a break on the weekends just to have variety and so on. But for ten weeks like you suggested, that won't be a problem if your somewhat active, which is already presumed.

I honestly think eating JUST egg whites is a waste, 6grams of protein are in an egg....half of them are in the egg yolk, throw away the yolk, now you have about 3 grams........which means you have to eat twice the amount of eggs (not to mention you have to buy more eggs more often) to get what you would out of 4 or 6 whole eggs...

And another thing, (while i'm on a slight rant here) Frank Zane, Arnold, Larry Scott, Vince Gironda and a LARGE amount of bodybuilders from the earlier days, used to consume dozens of WHOLE eggs a day for months at a time, and none of them have had heart attacks due to it.

I wouldn't worry about cholesterol, but there is a good amount of fat in 4 whole eggs. I wouldn't worry about it too much though.
