DESCRIPTION: Even studies funded by the American Egg Board show our arteries benefit from not eating eggs.
More on the reaction to the Eggs vs. Cigarettes in Atherosclerosis ( study in my last video, Debunking Egg Industry Myths ( as well as further discussion of the effects of the cholesterol in eggs on the cholesterol levels in the blood of egg consumers. More on that in:
• Eggs and Cholesterol: Patently False and Misleading Claims (
• Egg Cholesterol in the Diet (
• Avoiding Cholesterol Is a No Brainer (
I recently featured a food that actually does benefit vascular function. See Walnuts and Artery Function ( Though the nut industry did try a similar tactic, see my video Nuts and Bolts of Cholesterol Lowering ( The beef, soda, and dairy industries may also be guilty of experimental manipulation. See BOLD Indeed: Beef Lowers Cholesterol ( and Food Industry “Funding Effect” (
