What’s a yolk?

Eggs are delicious and cheap is the standard for many people’s breakfast but there are many people have concerns about it think the cholesterol of egg yolks yolks really so “unhealthy”? Let’s first understand
Cholesterol in egg yolks

Egg yolks contain cholesterol, which is considered a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and early dietary guidelines recommend a daily cholesterol intake of no more than 300 milligrams, so people have had to re-conceptualize the dangers of egg yolks, and thus avoid them.
As people’s research has found that although egg yolks contain cholesterol, the cholesterol in each egg is around 200 milligrams, and most people can effectively regulate the balance of cholesterol in the body, so there is almost no harm to the human body; and the “Dietary Nutrient Reference Intake for Chinese Residents (2013 Edition)” has eliminated the restriction on dietary cholesterol.

And egg yolks are rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin K, as well as calcium, iron and phosphorus. If you give up egg yolks, a nutrient-rich food, because they contain cholesterol, the idea is one-sided and the loss outweighs the gain.
So since the upper limit of cholesterol has been removed isn’t it possible to eat eggs freely? ∨
The most important thing to remember is that you should eat a lot of food in the right amount.

Here we must remind you that the “Dietary Nutrient Reference Intake for Chinese Residents (2013 Edition)” is formulated for the general population, and there is no need to strictly limit the intake of cholesterol for healthy people, but for some people suffering from metabolic disorders, the extra intake of cholesterol will affect the metabolism of blood lipids, including cholesterol and triglycerides, and thus easily cause coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases. cardiovascular diseases. Many studies have confirmed that for healthy people, eating one egg a day has little effect on serum cholesterol levels, and its nutritional benefits far outweigh its cholesterol content, so there is no need to be concerned about the more than 200 milligrams of cholesterol in an egg. It is recommended that healthy people eat one egg a day, with both egg whites and yolks. Of course, any food should be consumed in moderation. There is no such thing as good or bad; too much is a disaster.
