Believe it or not, Middle-aged men who ate seven or more eggs a week had a higher risk of earlier death, said by nutrition experts. People said : An apple a day, keep doctor away. An egg a day, meet doctor always.
There was found a men with diabetes who ate any eggs at all raised their risk of death during a 20-year period studied, according to the study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
"Whereas egg consumption of up to six eggs a week was not associated with the risk of all-cause mortality, consumption of (seven or more) eggs a week was associated with a 23 percent greater risk of death," U.S. researchers reported.
But it is find for a men without diabetes, they could eat up to up to six eggs a week without raised any healthy risks to them.
However, the study adds to an ever-growing body of evidence, much of it contradictory, about how safe eggs are to eat. It did not examine what about the eggs might affect the risk of death. Anyway, the egg consumption is very much depends on individual healthy condition such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol patients who coundn't take much of egg because egg are rich with cholesterol which it will impact our healthy if you have consume in a large amount.
So we have to considerate when want to eat egg, it is most likely do not consume over seven eggs a week. Men who ate more eggs were older, fatter but of course there are still a lot of others factors to affect our health risk.
If you want to stay healthy remember do more exercise and take more vegetables.
