How many Eggs do you eat per day?

- Start date
Yes, thank you Spitfire 
No thank you it makes even more sence now. 
I usually have a little scrambled egg whites (4 of them) with cheese in the morning. Sometimes I throw a whole egg in there if I get the urge.
i have my own chickens in the back yard. i get 6 a day from them & eat about the same amount.
hey what is the deal about only eating the egg whites..?? (i know it's something to do with fat) but you can cut fats back in other ways.
what do you all do with the yokes..??

Wrestlos,
It is to my understanding that 1 or 2 egg yokes a day actually has its benefits by providing the nutrients and carbs needed for energy. But with bodybuilders, they try to get as close to their maximum protein requirement by eating say 10 eggs or so at one sitting. Eating the first couple with the yokes should be fine, but if you ate 10 eggs a day with the yokes for most eggs it will cause your cholestrol to sky rocket
I have heard though a new theory that if you eat fresh eggs from free form chickens that eat bugs and have a rooster around you can eat the yokes without the same affect that you would get from eating the processed eggs from like your local store I was told that tests were done to prove this theory is correct..... who knows.

All I can say is with that amount of eggs, hope Mudge is standing downwind
It was primarily whites, I had usually 2 or so yolks per meal. Still though that amount of eggs, either via water or who knows seemed to bother me after about a week and I got wicked sick of them.
Egg whites alone are around 15 calories each, almost worthless.
Yeah I can imagine Mudge
It is hard for me to stomach 10 eggs.
Ever see that movie "Cool Hand Luke?" That was awsome, a real classic. That sob ate something like 80 eggs or so
Was funny after he ate them you could hear his stomach kinda rumble and everyone thought he was going to blow beads
My dog shares the yolks with me.

Careful Test.... your poor doggy can get high cholestrol too
Randy, no carbs, and it will not cause your cholesterol to go up. I've posted this info from www.mercola.com previously.
Thanks Mudge...
Your article states that the yoke is high in Biotin.
Actually this link better describes this
It also states that the yokes contain no cholestrol, but that is after recommending organic eggs. I believe non organic eggs have a different reaction as I stated previously.

The Cholesterol Issue
Do eggs adversely affect cholesterol levels? Most people would answer, "yes" without even thinking twice. However, this seems to be a popular misconception not supported by the evidence, according to Dr. Donald J. McNamara, PhD, of the Egg Nutrition Center, in Washington, DC, who made a presentation entitled, "The Impact of Egg Limitations on Coronary Heart Disease Risk: Do the Numbers Add Up?"
According to Dr. McNamara:
For over 25 years eggs have been the icon for the fat, cholesterol and caloric excesses in the American diet, and the message to limit eggs to lower heart disease risk has been widely circulated. The "dietary cholesterol equals blood cholesterol" view is a standard of dietary recommendations, yet few consider whether the evidence justifies such restrictions.
He notes that studies demonstrate that dietary cholesterol increases both LDL and HDL cholesterol with essentially no change in the important LDL: HDL cholesterol ratio.
For example, the addition of 100 mg cholesterol per day to the diet increases LDL cholesterol by 1.9 mg/dL, but that is accompanied by a 0.4 mg/dL increase in HDL cholesterol.
This, on average, means that the LDL: HDL ratio change per 100 mg/day change in dietary cholesterol is from 2.60 to 2.61, which is likely not even statistically significant and would probably have no influence on heart disease risk.
This helps to "???explain the epidemiological studies showing that dietary cholesterol is not related to coronary heart disease incidence or mortality," concludes Dr. McNamara.
The Egg's Role in the Current American Diet
Despite the decline in egg consumption, they still make "???important nutritional contributions to the American diet," according to Dr. Won O. Song, PhD, and Jean M. Kerver, MS, of the Food and Nutrition Database Research Center, Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, Michigan State University. They explored this issue during their presentation entitled, "Nutritional Contribution of Eggs to American Diets.???
The researchers used data from the most recent National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES III, 1988-94) to compare the nutritional intake of diets that contained eggs with those that did not.
Nutrient intake, egg intake, socio-demographic data and blood cholesterol levels of over 27,000 subjects were grouped according to the occurrence and frequency of egg consumption.
Daily nutrient intake of people consuming eggs was significantly greater than non-egg eaters for all nutrients studied, except dietary fiber and vitamin B6. BOLD4
In the egg group, eggs contributed < 10 percent of the daily intake of:
Total energy
Vitamin B6
10 percent to 20 percent of:
Folate
Total, Saturated and Polyunsaturated Fat
20 percent to 30 percent of:
Vitamin A
Vitamin E
Vitamin B12
Non-egg eaters had higher rates of inadequate intake for:
Vitamin B12 (10 percent vs. 21percent)
Vitamin A (16 percent vs. 21 percent)
Vitamin E (14 percent vs. 22 percent)
Vitamin C (15 percent vs. 20 percent)
They also note that dietary cholesterol was not related to serum cholesterol concentration. As a matter of fact, people who reported eating four eggs a week had a significantly lower mean serum cholesterol concentration than those who reported eating one egg a week. (193 mg/dL vs. 197 mg/dL).
The authors conclude that eggs make "???important nutritional contributions to the American diet."

Dr. Mercola's Comment:
Eggs are one of the most nutritious foods you can eat. However, it is important that you eat organic eggs. This is not necessarily cage-free or "free range" eggs.
Organic eggs will say so on the box (or you will know from the person who raises the chickens). An egg is considered organic if the chicken was only fed organic food and will not have bioaccumulated high levels of pesticides from the grains (mostly bioengineered corn) fed to typical chickens.
One must be cautious and not eat eggs every day as they have high potential for developing an allergy.
With respect to preparing the eggs, raw eggs may not be the problem you think they are (see below). But whatever method you use, the less exposure to oxygen and heat, the better the egg will serve as source of good nutrition for you.

thanks Randy,
eggs rule....... you guys should get your own chickens if you can. they are easy to look after. and the eggs are sooo much better...

My pleasure wrestlos...
I post this information so that me and others can try to keep up to date on new information. With all the new studies occuring daily, sometimes its hard to know what to believe. I always just assumed that egg yokes contained high cholestrol, and now they say that evidence proves that to be wrong.
Common sense though tells one that eating eggs from chickens that aren't raised on all those growth hormones such as your own personal chickens are by far the way to go
. Most people don't have that capability, but organic is the next best choice. Just wish I could practice what I preach. I guess for me it is just that organic is so much more money. I figure if I can't afford to eat 100 percent organic, why do it at all.... I know that is not good rationalizing, but who knows... Maybe one day I will convert and transform into a full organic man 
I agree, oraganic is way to expensive..
i try my hardest to eat fresh. have a bit of a vege patch going too.
other than that it is very hard to justify paying those prices for organic.

Randy....Do you have domesticated pigs?
Testosterone...
Don't be talking about my friends like that
Seriously, "No." I live in the city, no pigs here I'm affraid.
My relatives are from West Virginia though and raise their own pigs. Southern livin can definately have its advantages. But most of them are way overweight. You can guess why.

I think you have me beat with the 66 whites/ED. A few days ago I had very little but fried eggs all day long and ate 58 whole with no trouble. I was actually pretty hungry at the end of the day. No eggs were left in the house at that point. It was damn enjoyable though.

Yep, that'll do it
... Well glad you got it working.
2-3 hard boiled egg whites per day. Once or twice a week, scrambled whites with chicken and pico. Yummm
I like that quote under your name "Prince's Bitch". Actually I bet Prince likes it even more
Biotin is a rare amino found in egg yolks which helps metabolise protien and fats.

Man I have eaten way to many eggs, I am sick of them still!
I vaguely recall reading an article stating that it didn't recommend eating a lot of eggs because you could actually become allergic to them.
I don't know how true that is? I hope it is not true, cause I definately don't need to become allergic to eggs just by eating a lot of them.
