People's Pharmacy promotes egg consumption

Not a health risk when eaten in moderation

Joe and Terry Graedon, hosts and authors of the nationally syndicated radio show and newspaper column The People's Pharmacy said recently that research has shown eating eggs in moderation is not bad for your health or serum cholesterol.

Citing recent studies they said, “when investigators looked at the data they found that eating up to one egg daily had little effect on stoke or heart disease risk.” They added, “there is an experiment showing that egg consumption is linked to higher levels of ‘good’ HDL cholesterol and markers or improved regular health.”

Publications and presentations by Dr. Don McNamara of the Egg Nutrition Center over the past decade have defused opposition to egg consumption and have confirmed the nutritional benefits of eggs.
