I used to carry one of those. Is there still a ring tone that goes to the tune of: You can kiss my arse, you can kiss my arse?

I don't know how people continue to eat mass quantities as they age.

At some point, they've gotta be forcing it down.

What is the price for a dozen eggs though? I haven't bought any since the great egg shortage of 2015 began.

That starts to get the LDL/HDL ratio out of wack and then if you smoke, eat too many transfats, are exposed to other forms of exogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) or not consume sufficient anti-oxidants.


So, unhealthy people.



Well do healthy ppl usually have heart problems or high cholesterol? Healthy ppl are not the problem and they understand what a balanced diet is and what moderate exercise is.

quote:

Moderation and balance is the key to good health. Eat a balance diet, consume alcohol in moderation, get moderate amounts of exercise every day (20-60 minutes) and don't smoke and it really won't matter what you eat.


Agreed.



quote:

I still contend that healthy people could eat eggs over easy everyday of the week (and no one but my 10 year old cousin eats just 1 egg) and be completely fine, health wise.


Maybe if they ate no other source of cholesterol. If you double the amount of eggs but don't adjust the other sources of cholesterol then you are going to increase the risk of heart problems. If you double or triple the amount of eggs but adjust the cholesterol intake to account for then you probably not going to increase the risks. That is why it is more important to focus on cholesterol instead of on burgers, eggs, steaks etc. The recommendations are made to educate normal ppl on how to stay healthy or get healthy based on the thinking at the time.

quote:

You and I both know that the medical research on subjects like this are always about drawing correlations and there are ALWAYS confounding factors that influence the outcomes (and therefore conclusions made) in the studies. I think we'll see a pretty drastic shift in what we deem a healthy diet in the next few years.


I doubt there is going to be a shift that says hey you can eat an unlimited amount of eggs or cholesterol. The shift is going to go from don't eat this to consume in moderation and then the USDA will make new colorful ways (which they will change 5 years later) to educate bubba and shaynnay what moderation or balanced is.

Me either but they do. The obesity rates of the USA and the south in general show that they figure out a way to get it down.

IDK I live in the caribbean and the eggs from the USA are either broken or too close to the expiration date for me to reasonably eat them and I do not trust the locally grown caribbean eggs. So I haven't bought eggs since July 2014.

We usually get Egglands best.
They're good. But I'll go through 18 in 10-12 days.
That's between using them in other dishes, an omelet for two on Sunday mornings, and a couple here or there during the week for breakfast.

Bottom like is that folks with a genetic predisposition for high cholesterol can eat like your average healthy Joe and will have higher cholesterol. Those without this genetic tendency can eat foods high in cholesterol and fat and be just fine.

As a whole.

Wll that has to be one of the worst over simplifications of nutrition that I have ever read. Our eating habits up or down regulate our genes which control our body's processes. Ppl that eat too much sugar have increased insulin production and after awhile the body gets used to the elevated level of insulin and the cell doesn't respond like it should to remove glucose from the blood. That is the basis for Type II diabetes. The same thing goes with cholesterol of you eat too much cholesterol you are going to increase the amount of cholesterol of absorbed and the body will counter by down regulating genes that produce cholesterol which also effects HDL levels (mechanism still not entirely understood) and so you get a higher LDL/HDL ratio which means you have more LDL (the so called bad cholesterol) to react with ROS and accumulate faster than HDL (the so called good cholesterol) can do its thing and clean it up. Genetics does play a role but diet, exercise and enviromental exposure play a much larger role.

Even if your statement was a 100% true how would you know if your have good genes or bad genes?

There are tests for FH. But yeah, most will never know if they have it or not. High cholesterol often both genetic and lifestyle.

Is there real concern for an extreme shortage?

It pays the bills doe. Thanks to all the obesity, alcohol and high fructise corn syrup in the southern diet. Cardiologists, gastroenterologists, and hepatologists in the south are going to be in demand for decades to come.
