Association of egg intake with blood lipids, cardiovascular disease, and mortality in 177,000 people in 50 countries

Goes well with the 4 eggs I'm having for breakfast this morning, fried in coconut oil.

You'll have to read for yourself on what to do with coconut oil because of this professor.

A Harvard professor just busted the myth that coconut oil is good for you, calling it 'pure poison'

Association of egg intake with blood lipids, cardiovascular disease, and mortality in 177,000 people in 50 countries

American Journal of Clinical Nutrition — Dehghan M, Mente A, Rangarajan S, et al. | April 09, 2020

In the Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology (PURE) study, researchers analyzed 146,011 people from 21 countries in order to examine the link of egg intake with blood lipids, cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as mortality in large glo  bal investigations with populations from low-, middle-, and high-income countries. Overall 31,544 patients having vascular disease were also analyzed in 2 multinational prospective investigations: ONTARGET (Ongoing Telmisartan Alone and in Combination with Ramipril Global End Point Trial) and TRANSCEND (Telmisartan Randomized Assessment Study in ACEI Intolerant Subjects with Cardiovascular Disease). According to the findings, no significant links exist between egg consumption and blood lipids, mortality, or major CVD events in this analysis of 3 large international prospective investigations involving approximately 177,000 people, 12,701 deaths, and 13,658 CVD events from 50 countries in 6 continents.
