Yolks are high in cholesterol, but a recent study shows
that regular consumption of eggs does not affect all
general blood cholesterol levels, while another stated that
these foods increase the levels of good cholesterol, which
results protecting the heart.
This may cause confusion, but the medical community
show that dietary cholesterol should not be confused with
the blood, which is associated with an increased risk of
heart attack and stroke.
“There are bigger problems in terms of food American diet
than cholesterol,” says Drew Ramsey, a professor at
Columbia University psychiatrist who studies the links
between lifestyle and mental health. “There is evidence to
suggest that the first among concerns about food choices
must be cholesterol. Everybody agrees with this: diabetes
and obesity are caused by excessive consumption of
processed foods,” says Ramsey.
Here are seven of the most important benefits of eating
egg yolks (or whole eggs)
Eyes- yolk contains lutein and zeaxanthin, two
carotenoids associated with a reduced risk of cataracts
and macular degeneration.
Heart- regular consumption of eggs (one per day) helps
reduce the risk of blood clots and stroke and of stroke
production.
Brain- yolk, although rich in cholesterol, bring great
benefits on overall health, among them being the fact that
it contains high levels of choline (vitamin B7), which helps
to improve neurological function, reduce inflammation in
the body, the stage of brain development in utero
(consumed by pregnant women) and the production of
serotonin and dopamine, known as the hormone of
happiness.
Boobs- choline in the yolk helps to prevent breast cancer,
according to some studies, especially if regular
consumption of eggs began in adolescence. Other studies
have established an association between egg consumption
and a lower rate of breast cancer, but with an indication:
the consumption of up to two eggs per week is associated
with a lower risk of breast cancer, while consumption of
seven eggs per week contributing to this increased risk.
Hair, nails, skin- eggs are rich in sulfur, an essential
ingredient for the absorption of B vitamins, useful to a
better functioning of the liver, but also for the production
of collagen and keratin, which helps maintain healthy
skin, nails and hair, giving extra shine .
Developing muscles – six grams of protein per egg, along
with amino acids contain eggs are a perfect choice to
encourage muscle development.
Maintaining an optimal weight – several studies have
shown that regular consumption of eggs for breakfast
helps fight excess weight. People who ate eggs for
breakfast for 8 weeks showed a 61% reduction in body
mass index (BMI) than those who consumed a seat at this
table with the same calorie content. BMI is obtained by
dividing the weight (in kilograms) by the square of height (in meters).
