Ägg - bra eller dåliga?

[King Grub]

Eggs have one of the lowest energy to nutrient density ratios of any food, and contain a quality of protein that is superior to beef steak and similar to dairy. From a nutritional perspective, this must qualify eggs as 'good'. The greater burden of proof has been to establish that eggs are not 'bad', by increasing awareness of the difference between dietary and blood cholesterol, and accumulating sufficient evidence to exonerate eggs from their associations with CVD and diabetes. After 60 years of research, a general consensus has now been reached that dietary cholesterol, chiefly from eggs, exerts a relatively small effect on serum LDL-cholesterol and CVD risk, in comparison with other diet and lifestyle factors. While dietary guidelines have been revised worldwide to reflect this view, associations between egg intake and the incidence of diabetes, and increased CVD risk in diabetes, prevail. These associations may be explained, in part, by residual confounding produced by other dietary components. The strength of evidence that links egg intake to increased CVD risk in diabetes is also complicated by variation in the response of serum LDL-cholesterol to eggs and dietary cholesterol in types 1 and 2 diabetes. On balance, the answer to the question as to whether eggs are 'bad', is probably 'no', but we do need to gain a better understanding of the effects of dietary cholesterol and its association with CVD risk in diabetes.

Intressant läsning! Äter mycket ägg, och ofta också. Perfekt som smakförstärkare!

28 ägg per vecka just nu, får hoppas att svaret förblir "no". :D

Bumpar denna.

Av rent nyfikenhet; Är det någon skillnad på lös respektive hårdkokta ägg i näringsupptag?

Jag ligger på minst 16 per vecka - äckligt som fan, men billigt och bra protein och vitaminer.
Ja, äckligt när man tar ett helt och pular in i munnen utan tillbehör alltså - gott om man skulle steka eller ha i mat o.s.v.

En annan ganska ny:
Egg consumption may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, according to new research. Type 2 diabetes is becoming increasingly widespread throughout the world. Research has shown that lifestyle habits, such as exercise and nutrition, play a crucial role in the development of the disease. A new study has found that egg consumption was associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes as well as with lower blood glucose levels. Men who ate approximately four eggs per week had a 37 per cent lower risk of type 2 diabetes than men who only ate approximately one egg per week. This association persisted even after possible confounding factors such as physical activity, body mass index, smoking and consumption of fruits and vegetables were taken into consideration.

Om det inte är att ägg är allmänt näringsrik föda så har det antagligen med kolin att göra:

Man måste ju inte äta ägg för att få kolin. Men varför inte? Naturligt bekvämt förpackad mat och man blir inte särskilt kompromissad av att välja ekologiska varianter.

hmm, 35 kokta ägg i veckan sitter i alla fall bra i min mage *drool*

Äggröra är hur gott som helst....
