Why do people think eggs are healthy?
Because they are.
>>7699310
This, eggs alone can keep you alive for a long time foodwise, people need to stop being lazy fucks.
If they were 50% lower in calories I could eat a whole one for breakfast.

>>7699333
There's nothing inherently unhealthy about dietary cholesterol.
Eating a diet high in fat, cholesterol, salt and sugar couples with lack of exercise is unhealthy.
There's nothing unhealthy about eating eggs from time to time.
>>7699340
>there's nothing inherently unhealthy about dietary cholesterol
Other than it raises blood cholesterol greatly which is unhealthy
>>7699344
When eaten to excess, yes, cholesterol is bad.
When eaten in moderation, it is not.
>>7699349
No dumbass, you're looking at it the wrong way. It IS bad and any amount of it is bad. The thing itself is just bad.
It doesn't matter if you're a healthy person eating it, a first timer trying it, or an addict who has it every day. It's still bad and unneeded.
>one heroin isn't bad
>>7699292
Know what I get tired of, man? People thinking all foods are either healthy or unhealthy, cut and dry.
>>7699349
It is unhealthy, you are mitigating the effects by eating less but you are still inevitably eating something inherently unhealthy
>>7699356
But they are. It's science and mathematics. There are clear things you're able to compare to decide if something is good or bad, health or not healthy, within all food.
>>7699361
How do you define healthy food? As in, 'eating this has no chance of making you die any more rapidly'? Gooooooood luck finding any, man.
Seriously, what's "healthy" for maintaining muscle (eggs are a decent source of protein by weight) may not be the same is what's "healthy" for your heart (cholesterol is bad, maybe? We can't make up our fuckin' minds). It's, as I said, not cut and dry.
>>7699376
What's maintaining muscle mean? Being big? That's not a necessity for being healthy.
>maybe?
No, that's definite. Don't listen to paleo memeshitters
Eggs literally contain every vitamin there is, other than C
OP is retard
>>7699333
Go for a run you lazy cunt.
>>7699385
Wow, so does fucking broccoli, that means nothing you fucking dumbass
Did you really think you were so smart for stating something so fucking obvious you dumb retard?
>>7699381
Ohhhhhh no. Nope nope nope. I have no respect for anything paleo, not for a second. And nah, I don't mean being "big" necessarily, just having enough muscle. I still don't get what you're looking for as far as "healthy" goes. Longevity? Optimal resting heartrate? Strong bones? A shiny fur coat?
>>7699390
That doesn't make dietary cholesterol healthy, fatty
>the average thickness of endurance runners’ carotid arteries is between that of sedentary vegans and omnivores. It appears that if we run an average of about a thousand miles every year we can rival some couch potato vegans.

>>7699292
Because the egg industry spends a lot of money funding pro-egg studies and advertising and people fall for the propaganda.
>>7699400
You'll be just fine having enough muscle without eggs. Eggs are not the only source of protein, animal or otherwise
"Enough muscle" is hardly an issue in any context you mean. You'd have to be deliberately depriving yourself of protein for that to be an issue in any way.
Healthy as in not clogging your arteries
>>7699376
>As in, 'eating this has no chance of making you die any more rapidly'? Gooooooood luck finding any, man.
Virtually every fruit and vegetable falls under that category. There's no controversy about broccoli; everyone agrees that it's good for you.
>>7699394
>dumb retard
wat
>>7699292
Same reason people think milk is healthy. Because natural = automatically good and artifical or processed = automatically bad.
>>7699420
Proving my point phenomenally.
This is just a secret vegan thread isn't it. Why won't you people fuck off?
>>7699411
>It is unhealthy, you are mitigating the effects by eating less but you are still inevitably eating something inherently unhealthy
Now wait a second... Didn't you say earlier in the thread
>It is unhealthy, you are mitigating the effects by eating less but you are still inevitably eating something inherently unhealthy
?
I'm pretttttty sure the same could be said about any fruit or vegetable. By eating one apple instead of thirty, you are mitigating the effects by eating less.
>>7699425
>fruits have sugar in them, which is bad in all forms, like HFC
>being a paleofag
Son, you instantly lose all credibility when you say stupid shit like, "Fruit is bad for you.".
>>7699425
>sugar, which is bad in all forms
And what is your link supposed to prove? Most of it is observational studies that are not even calculating cholesterol at baseline
>>7699427
None of what I said is contradictory to anything I've said
>pretty sure the same could be said about any fruit or vegetable
What fruit or vegetable is inherently unhealthy? What fruit or vegetable in even half its amounts per day could raise your heart disease risk by 6%, 20% in diabetic patients?
>by eating one apple instead of thirty
An apple isn't going to raise your heart disease risk or any risk if you even eat two a day
>>7699453
>What fruit or vegetable is inherently unhealthy? What fruit or vegetable in even half its amounts per day could raise your heart disease risk by 6%, 20% in diabetic patients?
A fruit or vegetable stuffed with scrambled eggs.
>An apple isn't going to raise your heart disease risk or any risk if you even eat two a day
It does if you stuff them with scrambled eggs.
>>7699469
Looks like I've been wrong all this time
>>7699471
That's okay. No one's judging. Except maybe the paleos.
>>7699417
Except broccoli isn't nutritious.
For reasons I won't go into I got a steady supply of organic farm grown eggs. I can get at least 60-100 a month for free.
The problem is I'm not a huge fan of fried, scrambled or boiled eggs so I end up selling most to 1 or 2 neighbors and even throwing a few away.
What are some yummy alternative meals I could prepare using eggs? Excluding desserts.
>>7699354
Actually no this is inherently wrong. Blood cells actually can actually damage your veins once your blood starts pumping at a higher rate. Cholesterol provides protection once you actually begin to get your blood pumping. "Good" cholesterol also tends to "clean" your arteries of the worse cholesterol which you will come in contact with anyway.
>>7699498
> adjective
>1. providing nourishment, especially to a high degree; nourishing; healthful:
Want to try that again? Even paleo and atkins idiots agree that vegetables are good for you. I'd really like to know what you consider a healthy diet when all fruit is bad for you and broccoli isn't nutritious. If broccoli isn't then no vegetables are because it's one of the most nutrient packed vegetables.
>>7699533
Your body provides enough cholesterol for this to not be an issue at all
>good cholesterol
Which is outweighed by the detrimental effects of LDL, virtually always
>>7699499
Poached eggs are objectively the best way to eat eggs.

>>7699750
there's a difference between easily preventable (diet) and whatever the fuck you think is a point.
The notion that any food item is "healthy" simply because it contains some essential micronutrients is just out of this world retarded. If you eat a balanced diet with a good amount of vegetables, fruit, legumes, fish and grains, you will never have any deficiencies. So for a food to be healthy, it should provide more than just micronutrients, it should contain substances that advance and protect your health (typically phytochemicals and fiber). Examples of this would be garlic, cabbage, bananas, DHA, tons of other fruits and vegetables.
Eggs don't actually provide any such substance, instead coming loaded with dietary cholesterol and saturated fat. Egg consumption has never been associated with improved health outcomes or reversal of disease whereas plenty of plants foods have.
People think eggs are healthy because the egg lobby is very powerful across the Western world and spreads a lot of misinformation. A realistic baseline for a healthy food should go beyond essential vitamins and minerals to declare all animal foods "empty calories" since they do not actively prevent disease through phytochemicals and fiber, making them objectively inferior to plant foods.
>>7699774
I eat meat and eggs and Im going to live longer than you, because Im going to kill you. Wheres the vegetable that will prevent that?
>>7699321

Diabetics actually fare best on a low-fat high carb diet. And fruits aren't high in sugar as per definition because you can't eat enough of them to cause any significant change in blood glucose
>>7699333
Dyel?
>>7699333
>not knowing the difference between good and bad cholesterol
>>7699292
Because it's not processed nor loaded up with sugar therefore it's healthy.
>>7700056
Please, introduce me to your preferred brand of vegan antifreeze.
>>7699444
A diet very high in fruit would be bad for you.
>>7699333
>he fell for the cholesterol meme
high cholesterol is the result of the problems, not its cause
>>7700351
There is no evidence that any amount of whole fruit consumption is "bad", all of the evidence shows clearly that whole fruit consumption aids in weight loss and prevents certain diseases, with no upper limit established. Sugar is not bad, it's just another carb. Glucose is fine, sucrose is glucose+fructose and fructose is also fine.
>>7699354
>and any amount of it is bad
>>7699292d
They're a good source of protein and choline, something that Europeans need supplemented in their diets
>>7700657
So does it hurt to eat apple seeds and cores? Because I always do.
>>7700669
Dietary choline is metabolized by intestinal flora to form trimethylamine which is a direct cause of atherosclerosis - clogging of your arteries. Combined with the high amounts of cholesterol and saturated fat found in eggs, the choline content of eggs just gives you even more reasons to avoid them.

>>7700166
Diabetes is caused by high fat diets, not high sugar diets. It's been known for decades that type-2 diabetes can be literally cured by giving diabetics a diet high in carbs and low in fat. The original study, back in the 50's, showed that type-2 diabetes can be reversed by feeding people a diet consisting of nothing but white rice, sugar, fruit juice and vitamins.
If you made a diabetic person eat nothing but high sugar fruit, they'd probably be completely cured within a month.
>>7700327
I'm not vegan but antifreeze isn't a good example of something that isn't available vegan. Typical antifreeze chemicals like ethylene glycole and methanol are easily synthesised out of mineral oil or even plant matter.
>>7700710
>Diabetes is caused by high fat diets, not high sugar diets.
Wew, can't wait for the Taube/payleo/keto drones to descend on this thread
>lolololo he thinks fat makes you fat and gives you diabetes, what a moron, it's obviously caused by fructose because that... gets converted to fat, but fat is good though and the average American is actually on a plant-based low-fat diet which explains mass obesity (mega kek)

>>7699292
>Orbs of straight protein that you can keep in your fridge and cook up in instants, plus it goes with just about anything.
What do you think is so bad about eggs?
>>7699292
I eat no added sugar, refined grains, or vegetable oils. I eat 60g+ of fiber a day, plenty of legumes, whole grains, lean and fatty meat/dairy, and 3-4 eggs a day. Fatty fish 5-6 times a week. 5L+ of water not including green, white, and rooibos tea. I think eggs are perfectly fine in a diet like mine.
>>7700727
Lipid hypothesis has been proven since 1976
>>7700899
How the fuck do you eat 60 grams of fiber a day,do you drink Metamucil or something?
>>7700657
>pears have formaldehyde in them
No fucking wonder I hate pears.
Coconut oil is pure saturated fat. why do people think it's healthy?
>>7700937
I eat a shittonne of frozen vegetables, around 2kg a day
Add oats with breakfast, legumes with lunch, occasional sweet potato/fruit and most days I'm around 100g
My shits are large, painless and just perfect in general
>>7700946
Who the hell thinks coconut oil is healthy? I've only ever seen people talk about it for non cooking cosmetic things and anal lube.
>>7700937
I average around 80g a day. Whole grain bread, beans, lots of fruits and vegetables. Pic related is 4 slices of bread, a few cups of various fruits and vegetables and a bowl of curry with beans. When your diet is entirely real, non-processed food you'd be amazed how quickly the fiber adds up.
Define healthy

>>7702164
Japan walks more than any other 1st world country and works longer than them. That's why they're healthy.

I eat eggs and drink whole milk and eat cheese all in moderation. My cholesterol at yearly physicals always clocks in around ~130, triglycerides around ~40.
Eggs definitely haven't done anything bad to me. But that's just my experience. I also eat eggs from a local farm, but I'm not sure how much that is causing an impact.
>>7702244
130 is borderline high

You are believing disinfo. Eggs are extremely healthful and are an important source of choline, which is important for brain health. Most vegans do not get enough choline which is why they are irrational, mindless sheep like yourself.

70 kCal per egg, 3 egg omelette ends up around 300 kCalories
Are they healthy, no
But they arent particularly awful for you

Red meat causes cancer. You know what else causes cancer? Acrylamide, the compound created when you cook things until they're golden brown and crispy.
Basically everything except for raw vegetables causes cancer and you'll live a much happier life if you pretend to ignore it and gamble that the genetic RNG gods don't fuck you in the ass.
