⚠️ What to Be Mindful Of:
-
Cholesterol Content: One large egg has about 186 mg of cholesterol, but for the majority of people, dietary cholesterol has a modest effect on blood cholesterol. Those with diabetes, heart disease, or high LDL cholesterol should discuss intake with their doctor.
-
Preparation Matters: Boiled or poached eggs are healthier than fried eggs or those cooked with excess oil, butter, or processed meats.
🧾 Bottom Line:
Doctors and dietitians generally agree that for healthy individuals, eating 1 boiled egg per day is safe and nutritious. They do not cause harmful effects when consumed as part of a balanced diet.
