Myth
Eggs are bad for my blood cholesterol.
Fact
For most of us, eating cholesterol-containing foods has only a small effect on blood cholesterol levels. Most of the cholesterol in your blood has been made by your liver. Eating foods that are high in fat, especially saturated and trans fats, has a greater effect on your blood cholesterol levels than eating foods with cholesterol. Enjoy eggs and other foods with cholesterol if you don’t have high blood cholesterol and are generally healthy.
