Eggs do have cholesterol. All eggs. But earlier studies made two mistakes: 1. They did not differentiate between good cholesterol and bad cholesterol, and it turns out that a significant amount of the cholesterol in eggs is good cholesterol. 2. Dietary cholesterol is measured in miligrams. Saturated fat, whence cometh serum LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) in human bloodstreams, is consumed in amounts measured in grams (as everyone should know, a gram is a thousand miligrams).The cause of high cholesterol in human bloodstreams is saturated fat, not dietary cholesterol. By the way, this information has been widely circulated for at least 15 years, as pointed out in a letter to the Los Angeles Times earlier this year in response to the latest burst of having it publicized.

That was a little egg-streme wasn’t it ?

Well, since the body does not metabolize the cholesterol in eggs into cholesterol in the body, I have no idea either.
