🥚🥚 Egg prices going up again 🍳🍳 ⬆📈☝🏻

Eat the yolks! They're the most nutrition-dense part of the egg, and your body requires *ingested* cholesterol to use as building blocks for hormones and other necessities. Ingested cholesterol has little correlation to blood serum levels.

"The epidemiological data and the clinical interventions presented above clearly indicate the lack of correlation between dietary and blood cholesterol. These observations also suggest that the body has specific mechanisms to manage excesses of dietary cholesterol. The proposed mechanisms including decreased absorption or synthesis suppression were recognized early on [59] and they explain why dietary cholesterol cannot be extrapolated directly to plasma cholesterol."

"...the intake of dietary cholesterol is usually associated with an increased intake of saturated fatty acids which is documented to increase LDL Cholesterol and the risk of cardiovascular disease [13]. In fact, eggs are the only dietary source of cholesterol that is low in saturated fatty acid but is also nutrient-dense, economical and affordable. The average large whole egg (50 g), contains only 1.56 g of saturated fat, 1.83 g monounsaturated fat and 0.96 g polyunsaturated fat (Table 1). Egg yolk is also rich in dietary choline (147 mg) [14], which is an essential nutrient for human liver and muscle functions [15]. Choline intake is inadequate in 9 out of 10 American Adults."

*Not a doctor, nor a licensed nutritionist. If you have underlying health conditions that make you an exception, definitely check with yours. Also consider exploring limiting carbs, and getting twenty minutes of sunshine and exercise a day whenever possible.

To be on topic, my favorite Christmas present was a $15 little egg steamer that makes soft, medium or hard boiled eggs truly a "set it and forget it" process.

Make mayonnaise, it is pretty easy.

Use the yokes to make custards, like quiches or the world's best chocolate cream pie (don't use a box of pudding!!!)

Did you know that our brain is made up mostly of cholesterol? ... Which means that you need cholesterol, if you lower it or decrease it, bye bye brain. The cholesterol scare is a lie like 99% of everything else they lied about.

75% of the brain🧠 is made out of Myelin.

Myelin = 100% cholesterol

It doesn't matter. MAGA blames Biden and the Democrats for all their problems in life. It's pathetic.

oh , well as long as trump is going to reduce all the prices that are only high due to inflation that'll be ok . cant wait .

Trump halting avian flu studies. That like his big idea to flatten the cure during the pandemic by stopping testing.

The Trump administration has intervened in the release of important studies on the bird flu, as an outbreak escalates across the United States.

One of the studies would reveal whether veterinarians who treat cattle have been unknowingly infected by the bird flu virus. Another report documents cases in which people carrying the virus might have infected their pet cats.

The studies were slated to appear in the official journal of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. The distinguished journal has been published without interruption since 1952.

Its scientific reports have been swept up in an “immediate pause” on communications by federal health agencies ordered by Dorothy Fink, the acting secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Fink’s memo covers “any document intended for publication,” she wrote, “until it has been reviewed and approved by a presidential appointee.” It was sent on President Donald Trump’s first full day in office.
