Like 120 eggs a month, 1400 eggs a years. That is what you envision as the healthier alternative?
It's more that that's a shit ton of eggs. Money aside, this just contributes even more to the incredibly polluting factory farm industry.
A suppliment synthesized in a lab has far less ecological impact. Also it's far cheaper.
Back when I was in college I would eat 6 eggs plus some fruit for breakfast because I was flat broke and they kept me full all day.
In 2015, the U.S. Dietary Guidelines shifted from implying that one egg a day is “probably a bit much” to saying “one egg a day is fine if you don’t fry it.” This coincided with the removal of the quantitative cap of 300 mg/day on dietary cholesterol (a single egg basically maxes that out).
EDIT: The calorie count used to compute the portion of the comment below were incorrect. I'm leaving it unchanged for posterity, but want to clarify that an egg has about 80 cals.
Four eggs a day is almost 1,000 calories of egg, roughly half of many people’s total daily calorie intake.
Sitting on ass does.
If you are looking to the landing page of any of those major bodies to figure out how to fuel your body, good luck.
Like most things I’m sure you can overdo it. But if you’re choosing between cereal and a bagel or a couple of eggs, I think most would be better off with the eggs.
However if you don't like the idea of trying new things, and just want something in pill form, honestly lecithin or even better citicoline is the way to go in my opinion
What’s up with you?
