Did you read the latest JAMA article saying eggs are bad for us and spiral into breakfast confusion (again)? ⁣🤦‍♀️⁣
⁣⁣
Before you start throwing out your egg yolks like it’s 1995, let’s take a look past the click-bait headlines. 👇⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Here are my issues with the study:⁣⁣
• It was an observational study so it can not prove cause and effect. ⁣⁣
⁣
• It was based on food recall over a big span of time - idk about you but it’s hard to remember in detail what I ate yesterday let alone a month ago.⁣⁣
⁣
• They used said recall and assumed that the subject's diets didn't change at all for the next ~17 years. ⁣⁣
⁣
• There was no control for other factors that contribute to heart health issues like physical activity, what the rest of their diet looked like, stress, smoking etc. ⁣⁣
⁣🤷‍♀️⁣
⁣
⁣
In defense of eggs:⁣⁣
• Fantastic source of choline (a v important nutrient!) ⁣⁣
• High quality protein⁣⁣
• B-vitamins ⁣⁣
• Healthy fats + fat soluble vits ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
At the end of the day real food continues to be your best bet. You can’t convince me that choosing cereal, pastries or doughnuts is nutritionally superior to eggs. ⁣💁‍♀️⁣
⁣⁣
If you are allergic or sensitive to eggs (some people def are), you experience any sort of digestive or inflammatory reaction to eggs or you just don’t like ‘em, by all means leave them out! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Otherwise enjoy your omelet and don’t let the headlines stress you out - I’ll be over here doing the same😎⁣🍳⁣

Feed your brain- unprocessed foods full of fiber, lean proteins, and fats!

When you lose weight, your brain will intervene to push it back to what it thinks is the correct weight for you. And you might not like that number.

Even when you think it's a benign supplement like protein or salt tabs- buyer beware!
