Had some blood tests yesterday. I've been eating between 3-4 eggs daily for a couple months. I'm 5' 9" and 154 pounds, in good shape. The results said my cholesterol was high for my age.
Did Veeky Forums lie to me about eggs not increasing cholesterol?
Butter has alot of saturated fat and very little cholesterol, eggs have alot of cholesterol but a moderate amount of saturated fat
Jaxson Russell
ok I'll cut down on the eggs
Connor Howard
>3-4 eggs daily that's a lot, i just eat one meme or not sounds like too much
Jeremiah Adams
>5'9 154 pounds >good shape Also eat 2 whole eggs and the rest just whites as many as you want
Mason Smith
>5'9 154 pounds >good shape I work out every single day and 5-7 mile hikes every other day. What did you mean by this?
Jordan Reyes
BF?
Brody Parker
no I'm single

>couple months Lmao ive been eating 4 eggs every day for 4 years and my cholesterol is fine in fact all my results were great.

If you're not eating mostly fruit, veg, nuts, seeds, and legumes you're putting yourself at risk for all sorts of diseases. Don't fall for these shit tier memes about high fat and high protein.
Ryder Parker
Tbf 70/20/10 carbs/protein/fat ratio is the best for lifting and im not even vegan.
Christian Adams
FFS try to understand how cholesterol is made in your liver.
It's processed from some fats, especially animal fats, like meat and butter.
Avoid saturated fats. No problems with eggs.
Joshua Ward
If you injest cholesterol your liver will adapt and produce less. For example i ate eggs and chicken alternating for 2 months, using only a little olive oil for the eggs. Did my tests, everything was normal, for some reason the medic told me to drink less milk. Dumb bitch.
Matthew Davis
how do you even gain muscle with that
Lincoln Diaz
Total? LDL? HDL? What are your triglycerides like?
Go ahead and fall for the cholesterol meme, even though over half of heart attack victims have low or loew-normal cholesterol. Cholesterol repairs pretty much everything in the body, including arteries. You get constant imflammation from too many omega6s and hypertension from pre-diabetes and the body keeps rushing cholesterol to plug the literal hole in the artery wall and your dumbass eats more omega-6 and high carb foods to "cure" your high cholesterol.
But it's cholesterol's fault even though there can't be a bad blockage if you aren't repeatedly causing trauma to your cardiovascular system).
Camden Campbell
Also i ate 6 eggs
Chase Nguyen
Normally you dont need to eat more than 120g of protein maybe 150 if youre really big boy.
William Lopez
OP is probably one of those faggots eating at McDonalds everyday but will still blame the two eggs they eat for breakfast.
My dude just hard boil the eggs, dont cook in oil.
Noah Mitchell
And trans fats which are much worse come from vegan source whats your point?
Dylan Williams
and grass fed butter?
Connor Cook
I eat eggs and butter all the time and my blood was recently tested and it was all good.
Evan Clark
Why do you fags never delve into or even acknowledge the strong genetic component of people who have CAD?
Let's specify, when you are talking about "heart disease" you really mean CAD, the fact that nobody here is even being specific tells me they don't have much of a background for this stuff.
Either way, there are plenty of families out there where everyone eats like absolute shit and nobody ever has a fart attack for 10+ generations.
Why is nobody talking about the notion that maybe, just maybe, you should tailor your habits to your own genetic susceptibilities more than to generalized advice for generic humans?
Also, in case you really give a shit and are not just pretending to on the internet for good boy points, there is a growing mountain of evidence that HDL/LDL does not mean shit and HDL/triglycerides are a far more important predictor of having a fart attack.
Old study yes, but there's newer stuff out there. Go down that rabbit hole and you will see that things might not be how they seem. You might also end up digging around to see if any causative relationships between insulin resistance, A1C and HDL/triglyceride ratio exist. It's up to you, but the age old question of whether fat or carbs are the ultimate cause of metabolic syndrome might have some convincing evidence in one direction already.
Just saying.
Aaron Russell
Trans fats are less saturated
Juan Clark
These studies have all been criticized. Quit spreading bullshit
I eat 6 scrambled, farm fresh eggs every morning. Just gave blood earlier this week and they do a cholesterol test. Total was 185, non-fasting. Lowest I have ever had was 159, non-fasting.
Joseph Murphy
But what were you eating besides eggs? Maybe you were chugging on mayo daily.
Ian Phillips
None of those studies are discussed in your youtube video. This is not a valid response. >if you're not in complete denial mode, you should be able to agree that eggs may contribute to heart disease
Austin Reyes
Just curious, I know they have higher vitamin content, but do organic/pastured eggs have different macros?
Leo Brooks
In that I case, I retract my accusation.
Ethan Johnson
when I was eating 4 fried eggs and bacon every day my cholesterol was below the lower limit
Jayden Edwards
Not that I have seen.
Noah Gutierrez
Nobody, huh?
Out fucking standing.
This is Veeky Forums's attempt at scientific discourse. Great. This is why I don't even listen to internet fags and just read studies.
Gabriel Jenkins
So you skirt around all the evidence posted and just say "muh genes" with some random claims of "families that eat like shit and nobody has a heart attack" that I guess we're supposed to assume represents most people, therefore nothing matters and we shouldn't care about controllable factors like diet and lifestyle? Get out of here, HAES.
> there is a growing mountain of evidence that HDL/LDL does not mean shit and HDL/triglycerides are a far more important predictor of having a fart attack. >ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9355888 One study showing HDL/trig ratio may be useful is supposed to mean HDL/LDL means nothing? That's not a scientific interpretation of data, that's an attempt at scapegoating.
Lucas Bailey
eat more oats you mong,
Dylan Phillips
different fat profile.
Dylan Turner
I've eaten 4 eggs (coat the pan with bit of butter), with a bagel, beans, and spinach (almost) every single day for almost 2 years.
5'7 160LB recently had blood work done and everything looked great. 25 years old.
Aaron Edwards
Isn't that high? I thought normal total cholestoral was below 100.
Jayden Gomez
Guys, all these "researches" on eggs are spooking me. It almost feel like im actually falling for the vegan agenda. They even say its not even nutritious.
The thing is, is 2 eggs a day good to go? Or at least 1 eggs a day? Also, is there actual benefits to eggs
Cameron Morgan
eggs are a meme
Gabriel King
Eggs are the perfect food.
Everything that's in an egg is what you need to make a small chicken.
Eating an egg is like eating an entire chicken without the wait time.
Eggs are all you need.
Everyone needs to eat more eggs.
Bentley Gomez
I rather die big and strong then be some average normie who's afraid of a bit of sacrifice, man up and eat your damn eggs.
Elijah Sanders
just leaving this here lol
Lucas Wilson
That's what happens when you ask for advice from other addicts >eat all you want bro, it's fine, everyone's just a shill
WHAT THE FUCK CAUSES HEART ATTACKS AND CLOGGED ARTERIES THEN AHHHHHH
Hunter Nguyen
>I also eat a lot of butter. How about you don't eat any butter at all you faggot. Might as well inject grease directly into your veins.
Owen Peterson
Sugar, carbs, and processed foods, calcium supplements and vitamin d without k2 or magnesium, stress, lack of sleep, lack of exercise, excess free radical generators like unbound iron in the blood, etc.
Basically, anything that causes inflammation causes heart attacks and clogged arteries. Cholesterol is the molecule that the body uses to repair damaged tissue. Calcification of arteries and soft tissues like glands and organs occurs because calcium is delivered into the blood via vitamin (hormone) d, but is not directed to the bones by vitamin k2 (found in high concentrations in pastured egg yolks, btw).
Christopher Martinez
Trans fats aren't naturally occuring, brainlet
Isaiah Allen
But they're even worse because of that, I don't understand what point you're making
Eli Morales
>saturated fats, that literally make up bad cholesterol and are the reason cholesterol builds up in arteries due to their chemical structure, have nothing to do with heart disease and clogged arteries Jesus dude, it's like you actively try and avoid any actual scientific literature. I thought biology courses were mandatory for college? Did you even go yet? Cholesterol is definitely necessary and good for you, there's no argument, but excess saturated fat consumption leads to atherosclerosis. They even make fun videos about it for highschool freshmen if that's more your speed
Lucas Ross
But your study doesn't even say anything about LDL levels or compare the HDL/LDL profiles to HDL/trigyceride profiles. Nice memeing
Juan Cook
I exclusively eat raw egg yolks and then soak up the remaining juice with bacon fat. Everything else is a jewish trick to steal your white ki.
Sebastian Green
5'4" here and ate 8 eggs everyday for a couple of months. Both LDL and HDL turned out great. Only problem I had was constipation (not enough fiber) and great muscle gains.
If I remember correctly there's little to no correlation between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol. Not being active on the other hand has a much stronger correlation.
John Walker
Total under 200 is considered good for adults. LDL under 100 is what you're thinking of.
Nolan Mitchell
So what you have high cholestrol, thats not a bad thing
Jaxon Lopez
>that guy that doesn't actually respond to anything and just lazily reposts the same blogs as if it's a strong counter-argument
James Carter
>Basically, anything that causes inflammation causes heart attacks and clogged arteries
I get 2 hard boiled eggs a day from my place of work and also have a 2 egg omelette on saturday and sunday morning cooked in olive oil.
>tfw my coworkers mock me for eating the same 2 eggs every day while they drink full sugared sodas every day and have fast food like once a week >don't want to mock them for drinking poison because then ill be the asshole who cant take a joke
Grayson Miller
Nice
Colton Nguyen
no need to take the tone of mocking but it would be negligent not to tell them that sugared sodas with all kinds of chemicals are more dangerous than eggs
Josiah Parker
overly high levels of cholesterol are not a direct result of eating eggs but the livers inability for regulating the cholesterol levels, if your liver is not functioning at its best then eating a lot of cholesterol is not a good idea.
avoid alcohol and go research about diets that support healthy liver function
