Study suggests eating an egg every 3 days increases the risk of heart attack

Doctors must be embarrassed and patients disturbed. Studies on eggs continue to be contradictory, studies claiming its usefulness and another claiming that it is harmful, just recently a study confirming that excessive causes of heart disease.

Eggs have significant nutritional benefits and are important to the health of the human body in general, but a recent study has shown that an excessive intake of eggs is directly related to heart disease and the circulatory system.

Eggs are a quick meal rich in nutrients essential for health and a major source of protein. The body provides energy during the day, especially when it is taken at breakfast. On average, an egg contains six grams of protein and five grams of fat.

But eggs contain high cholesterol, which can lead to heart disease.

In a recent study, a research team analyzed data from about 30,000 people in the United States for about 31 years. The researchers found that 300 mg of dietary cholesterol a day was associated with an increased risk of heart and circulatory diseases by 17%.

In addition, 300 mg was associated with 18% of deaths, according to the British Heart Foundation.

The results of the study, published in the Journal of the American Medical AssociationJournal of the American Medical Association) that people who ate an egg every third day, 11% of whom had a heart attack and died from their injuries at about 12%

Conflicts with a previous study

In contrast, an earlier US medical study showed that eggs were useful for the blood vessels and the heart, and that the consumption of chicken eggs and derived products was useful for the cerebral vessels.

The previous study, published last May in the Journal of Cardiology in the United States, found that consuming one egg a day was enough to reduce the risk of cerebrovascular disease by 12% in the elderly.

Researchers have confirmed that eggs contain antioxidants that reduce the level of pressure of oxygen in the cells and eliminate inflammation.

The scientists reached this conclusion after analyzing the results of seven studies on the effects of different nutrients – including eggs – on cardiovascular health.

According to scientists, egg consumption was not only related to a reduced risk of cerebrovascular problems, but also to a reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease of up to 10%.

The researchers noted that participants in this study who regularly eat eggs have lower stroke mortality rates and heart problems than those who do not eat them.
