Here’s the “study” that came out that caused all the hubbub about egg yolks and CAD. They did not ask the participants about any other part of their diet other than egg consumption…. no data on exercise or waist circumference. Terrible study design and worthless if you ask us.
So far eggs are still good and can be part of a healthy diet!
