For most people, in most situations, we are more similar than different. [...] there is currently insufficient evidence to support truly personalized nutrition for most people.

AI Verified Relevant: on the source page, this line is part of the author’s broader argument that while some gene-based nutrition exceptions exist, most people are similar enough that personalized nutrition is not well supported for most cases. That strongly signals a determinable stance on the narrower claim that genetic variation generally makes population-level egg advice misleading for individuals, even though eggs are not mentioned explicitly.

AI Verified Against: the quote says "for most people, in most situations, we are more similar than different," and the source context adds that only a "specific minority" need a more personalized approach. So although the article allows some exceptions, it implies that genetic variation does not generally make population-level advice misleading for individuals.
