Some people cannot imagine a day without them, while others eat them occasionally. Eggs certainly have many nutrients, but can too much of them be harmful to our health? We explain how many times a week you can eat them so as not to harm yourself.
How many eggs can you eat a day? Experts make it clear
They can be prepared in many ways – fried, fried, boiled, solo or as an addition to salads or sandwiches. They are healthy because they contain a lot of protein (about 7 g in one egg). They are also a source of omega-3 and omega-6 acids, magnesium, phosphorus and a number of B vitamins as well as K, A, E and D. However, many people say that eggs contain a lot of cholesterol and should not be eaten in excess. Is it true? — Eggs should be eaten due to their nutritional value, but in reasonable quantities, i.e. no more than one a day — prof. Longina Kłosiewicz-Latoszek, expert from the National Center for Nutrition Education. The World Health Organization recommends eating no more than 10 eggs a week.
