i love eating eggs but from what i know eating too many eggs is bad because of its cholesterol so is there a limit number of eggs humans can only eat in a week to stay (still) healthy?

3 is usually the average. But that also depends on your height, weight etc....

If you remove the yolk, you are reducing the fat content. The actual cholesterol in the egg is nominal, but the fat turns into cholesterol. So if you can eat eggs without the yolk some of the time, great, as long as you don't get gas. It's very high in protein.
Of course the calories could make you gain weight. I would say that if you just test your cholesterol every six months, and you don't gain weight than you are fine, but I'm not a doctor.

Eggs are not bad, but try preparing them with little fat, like boiling or with one whole egg and 2 or 3 egg whites to lower the fat and the cholesteral which are all in the yolk.

2-3 is what experts reccomend, no more. Or try eating egg whites. So when you fry and egg, have one whole egg and one egg white. egg whites have=cholesterol
