Question

How much egg should be consumed to stay healthy?

I saw this chart. It says:2000 calories then cholesteroal should be less than 300 mg. According the the Nutrition facts, one egg has 215 mg of cholestrol. That means more than that exceeds the cholesterol intake

Answer 1

It used to be thought that eggs were really bad for you, but it's not the case anymore.I believe you can eat 1-2 eggs per day with no problem (assuming you're not eating a lot of other meat and dairy products high in cholesterol):

"Eggs are high in cholesterol, and health experts in the past counseled people to therefore avoid this food. (All of the cholesterol in the egg is in the yolk.) However, nutrition experts have now determined people on a low-fat diet can eat one or two eggs a day without measurable changes in their blood cholesterol levels."
