Health Myth No 1:
Eggs are bad for your heart and will raise cholesterol
Although eggs are a source of cholesterol, they will not increase your
cholesterol levels. Eggs, in fact are healthy fats. Cholesterol is more likely to be raised by unhealthy fats and sugars. Eggs are high in omega 3 fatty acids, which are actually good for you and reduce the risk of heart disease.
Cholesterol is not all bad. Likewise, not all fat is bad. Fat is not the enemy,
unhealthy fats, refined carbs and sugars are.
