Eggs and Cholesterol

Eggs are good nutritionally and an excellent source of protein. Eating eggs will not give high cholesterol levels unless they are fried, as the oil will raise cholesterol levels.

The British Heart Foundation advice is that you can eat as many as you like (boiled, scrambled, poached, omelettes and in cakes and puddings) within a varied diet.
