Everything in MODERATION

"Eggs are high in cholesterol! ", "Three eggs a week, that is the maximum.", "One egg a day is good for health." and "Eggs do not cause high cholesterol levels." These are some of the statements we might have heard over the years. Many research studies have been carried out, reports published and the results or findings circulated. I think it is important to determine the source of the information, the purpose of the research and who actually funded the research project. Could the research be funded by the owner of a poultry farm? If so, do you think the report would make negative comments about eating eggs? You may want to think about it.



I once read a report that said we have to drink plenty of water and it is good for health. And shortly after that, there was another report that said, we should not drink too much water, it would cause water intoxification and giddiness. Another seperate report said eating chicken skin is bad for health, but then there was another report that suggested eating chicken skin is good for health.

I think the best practice in life is to eat whatever you like in moderation. Too much or too little of something is usually not good. I have known of people who don't take oil at all, and still suffered from heart disease; on the other hand, I had an ex-colleague who takes two eggs every day and her cholesterol level has been normal.
