Interesting video: He claims that whole eggs have a substantially higher anabolic effect than any other food, including much higher than egg whites alone, which I have eaten a lot of in years past. He claims that 48% of every egg turns into body tissue. I don't know the science behind the claim, and the guy isn't a medical doctor, so I checked for more recent info on whole egg consumption on what I consider to be credible sites: https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/how-many-eggs-can-i-safely-eat https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases...terol/expert-answers/cholesterol/faq-20058468 I don't know about eating 4-5 eggs a day as he claims to do, but I'm looking into one a day, and maybe 2 on my lifting day. And to think that, not too long ago, I mistakenly believed that I had developed something of an egg allergy...
That’s a bit more than I’m prepared to commit to, at least for now. It’s a big stretch for me as it is being in the 7-8 range. Although several years ago, when I was limiting egg consumption to egg whites, I had about 24 a week.
A bit more of my confirmation bias at work: https://www.health.com/nutrition/eating-eggs-daily-healthy https://www.heart.org/en/news/2018/08/15/are-eggs-good-for-you-or-not
But there's always a damned fly in the ointment: ...study published in The New England Journal of Medicine found that eating two hard-boiled eggs daily increased the formation of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a chemical linked to an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Egg yolks contain lecithin, an essential fat that contributes to TMAO formation. https://www.today.com/health/it-ok-eat-eggs-every-day-t72841 On TMAO (trimethylene N-oxide): https://www.clevelandheartlab.com/blog/choline-tmao-heart-health/ https://www.health.harvard.edu/stay...ng TMAO,substance called trimethylamine (TMA).
My problem with eggs is that I get burned out on the flavor of them pretty quick. I can't just do eggs in the morning every single day. No way.
