An egg yolk contains almost 184 mg. People with normal cholesterol levels may have up to 300 mg daily. This means you could have one egg yolk per day or 7 egg yolks a week. However, per Joan Salge Blake, MS, RD, LDN says as long as you don’t eat other high cholesterol foods such as red meat and full-fat cheese you can consume this amount of egg yolk.
As Easter is approaching and there will be many decorative eggs to eat. Remember eat with care.
Did you know? According to The Nielsen Company, during the week leading up to Easter, there are 61,000,000 dozen eggs sold. That is 732,000,000 individual eggs. You can surely say that’s a lot of eggs.
Regards,
