Default egg whites

Bit concerned about cholesterol so trying to just use egg whites for now...
I tried the break in half and pour back and forth method, but seems to not
be much that way. Without the yolk, lose about half the egg. Maybe if I
make 2 eggs, include one yolk or part of one? My friend said she used to
have something that separated the white from the yolk (but it broke).

I know some say they are not bad, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. And
most things I've read say to not have more than a few a week. Also, eggs
are already in some things I eat and probably are whole eggs... That being
said, I do have a craving for scrambled or fried egg now and then (with
canola spray).


This says yes (they are bad), then no (they aren't bad)

This says they can be as dangerous as smoking!

This says ok in moderation (no more than 4 a week)

This is what happens when you put two inbreds together with a chicken
eggs.

If you only eat the whites, why bother?

I'm still eating them as I have for years. I eat four to six a week.
This confirms my thoughts.

The new study's findings do dovetail with large studies by other
groups having no industrial financing. For instance, in 1999, Frank B.
Hu of the Harvard School of Public Health and his colleagues reported
no increased risk of coronary heart disease or stroke in men or women
who ate more than one egg per day. The analysis compared diet and
cardiovascular risk among nearly 38,000 participants of two
long-running epidemiologic studies.

A Michigan State University analysis, reported a year later, analyzed
the diets and blood-cholesterol data for more than 27,000 people—a
representative cross-section of the U.S. population. It found that
cholesterol was lower in people who ate more than four eggs per week
than among people who eschewed eggs. However, the researchers
cautioned, "this study should not be used as a basis for recommending
higher egg consumption for regulation of serum cholesterol."

I wonder how much exercise those in the study got. I believe genes play a
big role. My dad is 89 and still very healthy, and has always eaten a lot
of meat, eggs etc. His dad lived to be 86 and was healthy, was working and
mowing golf course lawns into his late 70s. Neither were/are overweight and
stayed active.

The lipoproteins that transport cholesterol are important. Baste
those eggs in a high oleic oil like olive oil, and serve them with a
half of an avocado.
