Five whole eggs/day. Too much for near 60 year old?

[so-tex]

Lucky man. Much better and taste much better. People take for granted store bought that they taste as they taste. Farm-raised are delicious.

Big difference Mark. Even the caged free eggs they sell at the store doesn't comare.
I love seeing a big ol' yellow yolk.

[silverlightning]

i eat 3 whole eggs and two egg whties on the daily. i would monitor your HDL/LDL if you want to continue eating 5 whole eggs daily.

[mtpockets]

As long as you don't put them on 5 slices of bread, I don't see an issue.

I'll take a heart surgeon's word with over 5,000 surgeries over most everyone else. But that's just me.

So iow, you can get a good look at a T-bone steak by sticking your head up a bulls ass, but wouldn't you rather take your butchers word for it.

I eat at least 3 eggs every day.For me there is no other way to eat breakfast.On the odd day I choose not to eat eggs,its usually a bacon sandwich OR a bowl of raisin bran,or maple brown sugar oats..BUT 9/10 its eggs. I have high cholesterol and blood pressure and on meds. Im not worried. I guess if I die from eating "natures food" then i die..our bodies should be more resilient imho.. I guess if you are worried cut down to one egg a day..a good way to make that filling is making a bacon,egg,cheese,mustard samich.

Eggs were feed to rabbits in the 1970' s and caused an elevation in cholesterol .That was what gave eggs a bad reputation.

My neighbors used to keep a flock of geese, who had the run of about 10 acres. They laid lots of eggs, and we regularly got a bag of them. Bigger than chicken eggs, but they have that same bright yellow yolk that the free range chickens do. Absolutely delicious.



Damn coyotes.

Can't say I've ever had geese eggs.
I've eaten geese, and don't particularly care for the meat. I'm sure the eggs are good though.

Bull meat has a really tough texture.

Try aging them next time in the fridge for 6-8 days (Saran wrapped air tight) before cooking. The enzymes break it down some making it more tender and take a little of the strong "gamey" flavor out. I always slow cook geese and ducks in the crockpot with onions and sometimes light cream of mushroom soup. Still not my favorite meat, pretty good like that, but not on par with doves, pheasant, or quail...

Get the oysters instead...

Try throwing in some apples and oranges with that goose meat instead of the soup next time. The sweetness of the fruit really improves the flavor also...

I thought rabbits were veterinarians?

I'm eating 4-6 whole eaggs and bacon everyday ....... am I doomed ?

Rabbits can't deadlift because their paws are too little to wrap around a barbell

The rabbits I know use straps

Yup. You have a few months left. Been nice knowing you.

Whip up the 5 eggs with a little cream, throw them over some fresh onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, and a sliced chile serrano that have simmered in a skillet for just a bit. Stir and cook just enough to thicken. Cover with cheese and pop it in the oven. A delicious 5 egg frittata! Eat it over two days instead of just one! Where there's a will, there's a way.

[NorwichGrad]

I eat at least 3 eggs a day. But they're from free ranging hippie chickens raised by me. I believe there's a difference between organic and supermarket eggs.


At any rate, I have a feeling 10 years from now this thread will be resurrected like some lately.

And it would be great if you came out and responded with, "Yeah, bitchez. I'm still alive and I still eat 5 eggs a day."

Or, someone might say: "Yeah, bitchez. I'm still alive and I still eat 5 eggs a day. Although, I just had my right leg and left arm amputated."

Opinions in the medical world have change dramatically over the last decade concerning cholesterol. Obviously there's both bad LDL cholesterol and good HDL cholesterol, which is in eggs. I doubt that eating that many eggs is bad, but I wouldn't know for sure, especially since you have a history of high cholesterol. Cholesterol does boost testosterone though

Would second Partyrocking and make sure that your nutritionist is certified. Also, a good read concerning cholesterol is The Great Cholesterol Myth by Dr. Stephen Sinatra. As a side note, I usually eat 4-5 eggs every day and I have worked with a registered dietician and nutrition therapist, and she said eggs are great. Not sure if that really means anything since you're 4x older than me but I thought I'd mention it.

Wait. Are you 14 years old or just suck at maths?

Fact: Kangaroo eggs are the most nutritious and you can fill a frying pan with a single egg.

Sucks that the Aussies don't export them. Arsehole 'roo-egg hoarders.

It's International Australia day today.
Make sure to find an Aussie and kiss them, one preferably with straight teeth.

LOL Besides, you just don't point out the fact that anyone is 4 times older than anything! This is the 'Over35,' and some of us are a whole lot 'over' 35. Ha!

That sucks. My last request is to be wrapped in bacon when I'm buried, like a bacon mummy.

[Cass40]

Well there is a study of an 88 -year old man who ate 25 eggs a day, and all his test results were normal.
The study only consists of a one person, though. Maybe because it's difficult to find tons of people who eat 25 eggs a day

They are wrapped in bacon and might be somebody's mommy.

Especially at the current price. I eat 3-4 eggs a day. Of all things that I have to manage, my cholesterol has never once tested out of the normal range.
