leave me alone about eggs
http://www.drgrisanti.com/eggs.htm
they're great
If it's more reading than you want to do, some points:
1. dietary cholesterol (from food) is not that connected with blood cholesterol, therefore eggs don't make your cholesterol levels high (at least not permanently, or much/significantly, if temporarily -> from past reading)
2. increase (though possibly not significant) in blood cholesterol is in both LDL and HDL, the ratio remains mostly the same (this is important as the HDL carries away the LDL, or something like that...)
3. eggs are really fucking good for you! (especially if you're pregnant?)
4. eggs were demonized in the media (and by the american heart association, which obviously has some weight), and people ate less eggs
um. yeah.
