is it true that, the older an egg, the lower its level of cholesterol?

Just boil it, and take out the egg yoke, that will reduce the cholesterol and you won't have to wait.  Egg whites themselves contain very little cholesterol.

I wouldn't call 2 eggs daily "excessive"; however, studies have shown NO health risk involved with (reasonable) consumption of eggs, so the "eating eggs is bad for cholesterol levels and your heart" story has been largely relegated to myth status. \n\n"The April 21st issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA1999;281:1387-1394) [1] reports a study by Hu and colleagues from the Harvard School of Public Health which found no relationship between egg consumption and cardiovascular disease in a population of over 117,000 nurses and health professionals followed for eight to fourteen years. There was no difference in heart disease relative risk between those who consumed less than one egg a week and those who ate more than one egg a day."

Seaweed.\nSeriously, I did a Harvard Business Case Study on this in gradschool.  You can buy these eggs in the store called "Eggland's Best".  Guess what?  That wasn't the original name.  They called themselves "Heartland's Best" because of the lower cholesterol.  But, the egg farming lobby is pretty powerful in this country and they got that squashed, so Heartland had to change their name to Eggland.  There is some proprietary mix they sell to egg farmers who want to produce these reduced cholesterol eggs.  I know it contains seaweed, but I'm not sure what else the feed contains.

Nope, eggs are nature's perfect food.  \n\n\nAnd there is no evidence that dietary cholesterol affects blood cholesterol.\n\nEnjoy your eggs.

Cholesterol is actually produced by the liver and is a fat-like waxy substance.\n\nAlthough Cholesterol is often thought of as a "bad thing", and if too much is in the body it is, the truth is that cholesterol also has purposes important to your overall health and body function.\n\nEvery cell within the body is formed to varying degrees from cholesterol. When the cholesterol level becomes elevated, it can be dangerous, however, at the appropriate level, it plays a vital role in many functions of the body.\n\nCholesterol works to build and repair cells, produces hormones such as estrogen and testosterone, and produces bile acids proven to aid in the digestion of fat.\n\nIf you have too much cholesterol in your body, the levels build-up in the blood and cause clogging, which in turn raises the risk for heart disease and/or stroke.\n\nSome cholesterol is produced in your body while eating saturated foods made from animal-based foods such as dairy meat, eggs, which are essential components in the elevation of cholesterol. Foods such as fruits, vegetables, and grains do not contain cholesterol.\n\nMore than 50% of all adult Americans have levels of cholesterol that are too high. If you think about that, what that means is that the potential for having a heart attack and/or stroke is just teetering on the edge for millions of people.\n\nAs you will learn in this site, there are ways that cholesterol levels can be reduced. There is hope in that for every 1% you lower your cholesterol, your chance of having a heart attack and/or stroke is reduced by 2%. Not a bad ratio!\n\nThe best approach for managing your cholesterol level is to have it checked by your physician every three to five years. If you have elevated cholesterol, there are several ways you can lower your cholesterol before trying medication.\n\n\nSymptoms of high cholesterol usually are rare. High cholesterol levels are generally identified from a blood test. The symptoms seen are actually from the end-result of high cholesterol for health issues such as coronary disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease.\n\nLet us break each of these down to look at the symptoms in depth.\n\nCoronary Disease\n\nThe primary symptom associated with coronary heart disease is called Angina (chest pain). When a person experiences this, they describe a feeling of "pressure", "squeezing", or a general feeling of "someone sitting on their chest."\n\nThese symptoms can spread to the jaw, neck, or arm regions of the body and although the primary symptom is the feeling of pressure in the chest region, some individuals experience that feeling of pressure in other areas and not the chest.\n\nIn addition to the reported pressure, other symptoms can include nausea, shortness of breath, sweating, lightheadedness or dizziness, and heart palpitations.\n\nAngina can be directly correlated to coronary heart disease and should be taken seriously. However, there are other stressors such as over-exertion, high-level of emotion, or even after eating a huge meal to be considered. In these circumstances a short period of rest, five minutes or so, will reduce or eliminate the symptoms. Again, if you have any of these symptoms, it is better to be checked out by a physician than to assume everything is fine.\n\nStroke\n\nThere are four primary symptoms pertaining to a stroke although often times this is a sudden event with little or no warning.\n\nThe sudden onset of numbness or weakness of face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body \nConfusion, difficulty speaking or understanding \nSudden trouble with vision in one or both eyes \nDizziness, loss of balance, lack of coordination \nOther symptoms can include:\n\nNausea and/or vomiting \nFever \nFainting, convulsions, and even coma \nPeripheral Vascular Disease\n\nThis is a disease consisting of the blood vessels. Arteries that carry blood to your extremities become narrow or clogged. The outcome is that the bl

Not really.  There are medications you can take for reducing your cholesterol.  Also watching the type of food you eat and getting more exercise can reduce high cholesterol levels.  There are plenty of web sites that will give you advice.\n\nHere is just one of them....\n\nhttp://heart.healthcentersonline.com/cholesterol/?WT.srch=1\n\nIf you do a Google search you will find plenty more.

Sure you will. Just keep a moderate well balanced diet. Heck, you can actually eat Bacon, real butter and Rib-eye steaks. But, moderation is the key. Most people are lead to believe these mentioned foods are bad for you. This how people like me keep the Demand low and thus price down so, we enjoy the good food and everyone else buy the lesser nutritious. Basic supply and demand economics. The link will help, I just use Butter and better cuts of meat. Up the HDL's and they lower the LDL's. The good eliminate the bad, just how nature work, without pills.

Your question is sort of an oxymoron, because the "albumin" of an egg is the protein found in the egg white.  \nAlbumin is made up of mostly water, along with very good quality amino acids (proteins).  Besides protein, there really is only negligable amounts of vitamins in the albumin itself.  Biotin is found in good amounts in the egg white.

absolutely, in fact this is proven to be true. there was some study regarding migraine suffers and after they went through all their symptoms and threw up many of them reported craving certain things like high protein and fat meals. they reported that after having that they felt better.  i think this is also true about pregnant women.  i think the egg thing with you is your body is craving proteins, i love eggs myself...put a little horseradish sauce (not pure horseradish) on it and eat it just like that, its spicy and good for you.  so go boil a dozen eggs and enjoy!

Oatmeal, a rich source of dietary fiber, has been discovered to lower cholesterol levels in over 40 separate research studies. It is thought that the oat fibers mix with cholesterol in the small intestine and carry the cholesterol out of the body instead of it being absorbed into the blood. The Food and Drug Administration is also convinced---oatmeal was the first food to carry the distinction on its label to lower cholesterol levels.

no its not true because cholesterol is needed to produce sex hormones

Good question.  Your cholesterol rate shouldn't increase with moderate consumption.  If you are concerned, no-yolk egg noodles are widely available in your local grocery store, and they taste just the same.  Just like with popcorn, the worst part about pasta is what you put on it...so choose healthy options when you make or buy a sauce.  I like just extra virgin olive oil and fresh garlic, with some dried herbs thrown in.

They will be helping to lower the cholesterol content.

Eggs do have lots of fat and cholesterol, but they are good for you also.  I think 2 every day may be too much though.  Try eating one whole egg, with one egg white.  That way you leave out one yolk and cut your fat and cholesterol in half.  This is the only "light" way I have found of eating eggs, since I don't find Egg Beaters or plain whites to be edible.

When I was 13 I had my cholesterol checked, and it was 0.  The dr. laughed and said he had never seen that before. The lower the better.

My mother eats oatmeal everyday.  She cooks it with raisins to add natural sweetness.  It does wonders to the cholesterol level.\n\nDo not buy the instant oatmeal.  It has to be the one that you cook on a stovetop for a while.

there is an science project that you put a whole uncooked egg in  vinegar and see how long it take for the vinegar to break the eggs shell down and make the shell soft and you just monitor the progress it's very cool cause you would never think that an eggs shell could turn soft you can also to give it more depth by trying other liquids and compare them
