Relevant: the source explicitly treats LDL cholesterol as a causal risk factor for coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular events, and says higher LDL causes cardiovascular events such as CHD. So the quoted claim that egg consumption raises LDL is an on-topic underlying-cause argument for the statement about cardiovascular-disease risk, even though the report separately says the direct evidence on egg consumption and CHD risk is inconclusive.

Verified: the PDF at the supplied URL contains the exact sentence in section 3.2 ('There is strong evidence that consumption of eggs increases LDL cholesterol with approximately 0.10 mmol/L per one egg per day.'), and the document’s preferred citation attributes the report to the Health Council of the Netherlands as publication no. 2025/19A6e, so the attribution is correct.
