Experts believe HDL acts as a scavenger, carrying LDL cholesterol away from the arteries and back to the liver, where it is broken down and passed from the body. One-fourth to one-third of blood cholesterol is carried by HDL. A healthy level of HDL cholesterol may also protect against heart attack and stroke, while low levels of HDL cholesterol have been shown to increase the risk of heart disease.</P></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Now, <A href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2015/02/10/feds-poised-to-withdraw-longstanding-warnings-about-dietary-cholesterol/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">details on a new study are being released</A> that leave our supposed experts with egg on their faces.</P><BLOCKQUOTE><P>The nation’s top nutrition advisory panel has decided to drop its caution about eating cholesterol-laden food, a move that could undo almost 40 years of government warnings about its consumption.</P><P>The group’s finding that cholesterol in the diet need no longer be considered a “nutrient of concern” stands in contrast to the committee’s findings five years ago, the last time it convened. During those proceedings, as in previous years, the panel deemed the issue of excess cholesterol in the American diet a public health concern.</P><P>The finding follows an evolution of thinking among many nutritionists who now believe that, for healthy ******, eating foods high in cholesterol may not significantly affect the level of cholesterol in the blood or increase the risk of heart disease.</P></BLOCKQUOTE><P>This is one of the best pieces of news to come out in a long period of time. <A href="https://www.healthguidance.org/entry/16580/1/Eggs-A-Nutrition-Powerhouse.html" target="_blank">Eggs are loaded with nutrition vital to health</A>:</P><BLOCKQUOTE><P>A single large egg contains only 70 calories and a mere 1.5 grams of saturated fat, while providing the body with 6 grams of the highest quality protein. Most of the important nutrients are contained in the yolk, which is a good source of vitamin A, iron, B vitamins (such as folate and riboflavin), zinc and a number of other important nutrients.</P><P>Eggs provide choline, which is a nutrient in the family of B-vitamins that has been shown to help preserve memory function, and the nutrients zeaxanthin and lutein, which help guard against loss of vision. Egg whites are a good source of riboflavin and selenium. Riboflavin is an antioxidant and plays a role in energy metabolism and selenium is also an antioxidant and promotes a healthy immune system.</P><P>Eggs provide the body with a highly digestible form of essential amino acids. They are also a good source of leucine, an amino acid that is important in helping the body to maintain and build muscle while at the same time encouraging lower levels of body fat.</P></BLOCKQUOTE><P>In 2012, I broke my hip in a freak accident.

I do not even have to read this, because I knew all along about the "big lie" about Cholesterol, when touted more than 40 years ago and have eaten at least 2 eggs per day all that time. The biggest problem with so-called "modern medicine are the dumb doctors, who have swallowed all the lies of "Big Pharma" and passing on all that mis-information down to their patients.

It would behoove us to follow such advice, when doctors who do the same to themselves, which is why the age of mortality for all doctors is 58! Re: "Dead Doctors Don't Lie".

Unforseen ?They have certainly known for longer than I have that the human body DEPENDS on cholesterol .

Sugar is drug of choice for everyone of all ages and it is killing Americans really fast .Unless or until people start acknowledging that fact and finding where in the food supply it is being hidden , they will get sicker and sicker and nothing will help make them better .

I never stopped eating them. I was married to an Medical Doctor, an internist, who threw a fit about me eating eggs and feeding them to our ********. I would tell him, someday soon the medical field will figure out eggs are not bad for you. BINGO! I won!
