Disputed The quoted words do appear verbatim in the PDF, at lines 384-385: “elevated LDL cholesterol, which is an established CHD risk factor that may well be on the causal pathway form egg consumption to CHD.” The PDF is dated 4 December 2025, and its preferred citation credits the report to Health Council of the Netherlands; the introduction says the Committee on Nutrition drew the conclusions and took final responsibility, but that is not the source’s canonical author line. So the quote is authentic, but the stored author should be corrected.
