Comment by Cheryl Strachan

Human avatar
Registered Dietitian, nutritionist, and cardiac specialist focused on heart-healthy eating guidance.
Keep in mind that these studies are a relatively weak form of evidence, because they’re based on observational data. This type of study can’t prove that the eggs caused the heart problems, because something else about the big egg eaters might be at work.
