If you ask an addict if his/her drug of choice is bad for them, what do you think the response is going to be?

this

ive heard that if you eat >=1 egg a year, you lose 12-54 years on your lifespan. not sure if its true though...

on the inverse, for each chicken breast you eat you gain 12-54 years, so its probably some delicate balancing act.

wow trusted's should not be allowed to troll like this

No shit? Damn it's like you didn't read shit whatsoever before you decided to respond.

seems like nobody really knows how to answer this question, so here you go.

the short answer is no, and they've been a part of human's diets for a long, long time. but just like all things, moderation is key, and there are plenty of other factors to take into consideration.

eggs have both HDL and LDL cholesterol. if you've already got high LDL cholesterol levels, too many whole eggs can worsen the condition, i'm talking like >1 a day. however, if your brain is a part of your dietary choices and you're a healthy person, eggs serve no detriment to your health (of course, in moderation.) just keep in mind eggs have a buttload of cholesterol, so if you start your morning with 3 eggs, it'd be wise to avoid any type of cholesterol for the rest of the day.

chicken breast is basically god tier animal protein, no worries there. pork and red meat are renowned for their high saturated fat content, which provides next to no health benefits, but can have serious negative effects when consumed in excess. choosing lean cuts of red meat is the wise thing for any health-conscious person to do, and keep the portions small.

5oz sirloin = you're in good shape and should not worry about negative health effects. a very lean cut, and a moderate sized portion.

15oz t-bone or ribeye from applebees = renowned for being the tastiest cuts of meat, but health-wise it's bad, all bad. huge fat content, and a huge portion.

in short, choosing your meat wisely, and never over-indulging will give you all of the great nutritional benefits meat and eggs have to offer, and if your lifestyle is otherwise a healthy one, it's very unlikely you'll ever see negative side-effects in the long term from it. on the other hand, over-indulging on fatty meats and eggs on a daliy basis has a great chance of resulting in heart disease and kidney stones.

also, animal proteins + dehydration = kidney stones. stay hydrated gentlemen.



please disregard every single word of this guy's post. thanks.
