Thread: Eggs - what's the deal?

The yolk is where the fat and cholesterol is!

Speaking of eggs, I know that fried eggs are not all that giood since it's high in fat too, but I always remove the yolks and fried 3 egg whites with only 1 yolk. How much fat will be reduced if I do that?

------------------
Work hard, play hard, and sleep well.

The egg yolk is great. Although it has all of the fat, it's mostly EFA's. The cholesterol in the egg is not bad for you, it's almost all LDL (good cholesterol).

Complex problems have simple, easy to understand, wrong answers.

True, and the cholesterol is mainly not absorbed, but fat is fat

I agree, eat the yolk.

Yes, eggs are very good for you, and should be included in your daily diet.

Just because the majority believes it, does not make it true!

I also agree, if your worried about the fat, then don't eat all the yolks.

Just another day in the gutter

Hey,

What is better for you and why:
- Hard Boiled Eggs
- Scrambled Eggs (without anything added)
- Fried Eggs(without anything added)

Or are they all the same?

Thanks,

if you are not adding anything the fat content should be pretty much the same

the same.

My honey is a bodybuilder and he will have 6 eggs (scrambled) for breakfast but with only 2 yolks. He eats that every morning and sometimes for a late night dinner... (of course accompanied by other foods).
