An egg a day might reduce risk of heart disease: Study

New Delhi, Jan 28 (ANI): A new study conducted in China finds that eating an egg a day may lower risk of cardiovascular disease. The study found that daily egg eaters had an 18 per cent lower risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, reported CNN. Earlier doctors would warn patients against eating too many eggs, believing that despite containing high-quality protein and other positive nutritional components, they also have high amounts of cholesterol, which was thought might be harmful. Over nearly nine years, the research team tracked this select group. They focused on major coronary events during the study.
