So what do you anti-egg people think we should eat every morning?
Cereals that are nothing but dolled up processed white flour and white sugar?
Obesity keeps going up and up and the ignorant masses think real foods like meat and eggs are the problem even though we eat less of them than our parents and grandparents did.

If I just eat the whites, thats like wasting half the egg. Im not going believe a quote from an egg producer website, it just seems too corrupt to be true.

QUESTION:
But what about the cholesterol in eggs, is that okay as far as healthy eating goes?
ANSWER
It's a well-known fact that eggs contain cholesterol. However, dietary cholesterol has very little impact on blood cholesterol levels in most healthy individuals. Recent research findings clearly indicate that when eggs are consumed as part of a low fat eating pattern, they are unlikely to alter blood lipid levels (1,2).
Eliminating cholesterol-rich foods from the diet could limit the availability of other important nutrients. If you are worried about your heart health risk, it is much more important for you to cut back on your total fat intake than to worry about a single food that contains cholesterol, like eggs.
If you are at risk for heart disease, have had a heart attack or have high blood cholesterol levels it is important for you to cut back on your total intake of fat, especially saturated fat, and trans fat and to follow the diet that has been prescribed by your doctor or dietitian.

the healthiest breakfast is 100% whole natural oatmeal. No sugar no additives. If you're serious about eating healthy then suck it up and eat plain oatmeal.
the cereal on the market on this day is so full of sugar its not even funny.

1) Fast-food and its subsequent supersizing of ALL portions in ALL types of restaraunts (i.e. we eat larger portions than the generations before us, even if they did eat more meat and such)
2) Sedentary lifestyles
3) Increase in sugar intake
4) Sedentary lifestyles
5) Increased stress and inability to cope

There you have it, the secrets to America's obesity problem.

I don't think #s 1 or 3 would be any problem at all if it weren't for #s 2, 4 and 6.

i dont think cholestrol is a problem for most healthy people. a lot of my weightlifting friends eat a lot of eggs and they are very active.
it's your a dormant fat turd putting down 3-4 eggs a day then it would bea problem.
of course that's just my opinion, and im probably wrong

The biggest problem isn't the size of the portions but the actual food, it's so refined that it is ridiculous... We were not meant to eat white bread with butter and a slice of high fat cheese or salami...
That and the lack of excersise is the biggest problems...
We weren't made to sit still all day long, eating fried potatoes and ground beef in white bread with sauces high in saturated fats...

It's well known that simple carbs and saturated fats decrease insulin sensitivity, you cannot cure that by excersising, you need both the right diet and the excersise to be healthy and feel good...
Oh, and #5 can be reduced by excersising...

Agreed.
On my low-carb diet I eat 5 eggs, three strips of bacon, and a bowl of pure oatmeal every breakfast, six days a week. I also ususally have several slices of melon or strawberries. Without this breakfast, my workouts later in the day suck ass.
BINGO!Sedentary lifestyles

If i were you i would try to decrease my saturated fat intake as it will reduce the insulin sensitivity, that is, it will make it harder for insulin to push protein into your muscle cells... Some saturated fats are needed, but looking at your breakfast i see NOTHING but saturated fats, not one gram of EFA's...
EFA's can increase insulin sensitivity...
Of course, not everyone is as extreme about their diets and training as i am, just sharing what i know...

Your body produces a ton of cholesterol - you eat some too. So simply eating a bit less won't affect your overall levels very much since your body still will produce your own. Similarly, eating a bit more won't raise your levels very much. But everything should be done in moderation - of course if you only eat pure cholesterol it will dramatically raise your overall levels. You don't want to overdo any one food. Eggs (just like all foods) have lots of benefits and some drawbacks - but in moderation, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.
Plus you can learn a lot about cholesterol from the TV drug ads. They all say they lower cholesterol significantly, yet they also state in fine print that the lowered cholesterol has no effect on heart attacks. So if high cholesterol caused heart attacks, wouldn't that be inconsistent? Doctors and researchers should look at that and immediately know that the conventional theory has something wrong. I will now submit my opinion (note this isn't proven fact, but it does match the evidence): Cholesterol doesn't cause heart attacks, but rather there is a cause of heart attacks that simulataneously causes high cholesterol. People just saw a correlation between heart attacks and cholesterol and assumed that cholesterol caused them.
How about a silly example. Suppose everytime I got angry I punched one of my friends in the face and I broke a window. After years of research, doctors determine that whenever there is a high number of broken windows, there are a high number of people coming into the hospital with broken noses. Thus broken windows causes broken noses! No, they are correlated, but one doesn't cause the other.
