New Study: Lecithin in Egg Yolks just like Carnitine in meat provoke bacteria to raise heart risk.

Original post from:
April 24, 2013 - Two weeks ago, the investigators reported that carnitine, a compound found in red meat, can increase heart disease risk because of the actions of intestinal bacteria. This time they reported that the same thing happens with lecithin, which is abundant in egg yolks.

AnonBro very thing is good and bad for you at one point and time it seems like lol! Eggs have been good then bad then good now bad again ! You can't win bro so don't sweat it nobody wants to live forever anyways it get lonely and miserable being old
Buildbigger86Exactly C, Plus from my reading on this they are more concerned on the fat from eggs. So for example for Breakfast ill have 2 eggs with yoke for nutrients and then 6 egg whites. So that seems like that a good intake of eggs. Also they dont discuss how many nutrients your body gets from the egg yoke either.
AnonYeah I have 5 egg whites and 1 whole every time I eat eggs
Buildbigger86Do you think that only using 1 yoke with your whites carries enough nutrient in it? I have been trying to find the best balance ya know.
AnonThat I can't say I'm not certified to answer that honestly but that's what I do I eat it like that every time
hahaha i hear yah... But I think these studies may play a bigger importance with most of us guys running crazy cycles which in return messes w/ our lipid profiles and .... not to mention the modified diets for bulking etc... Don't get me wrong, I eat eggs, meat etc... but I feel little bit more empowered knowing what is causing the build up of cholesterol and increased heart risk. According to these latest studies, its not the cholesterol but some yet to be identified gut bacteria that carnitine and now lecithin has been proven to feed which inhibits our body to excrete excess cholesterol leading to the obvious.
It will be great when they develop something that can kill off this bacteria and prevent further plaque build up in our arteries. Then we can all rest a little easier...
AnonRight on bro
thx brother!
AnonNo prob
