Even half an egg daily increased overall mortality. 

3: Limitations of the Research The study couldn't prove causation and might not apply to Chinese due to different diets. The high intake of high-calorie foods among Americans could contribute to higher disease risks.

4: Eggs and Cardiovascular Diseases Claims that eggs lead to high cholesterol levels are inaccurate. The body produces most of its cholesterol, and eggs do not significantly affect blood cholesterol levels.

A study by Peking University showed that consuming one egg daily reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease and hemorrhagic stroke. 

5: Recommended Egg Intake China Agricultural University recommends a daily intake of 40-50g of egg or 1-2 eggs to reduce the risk of diabetes and hypertension. Consuming more than six eggs per week increases overall mortality.

6: Eggs to Limit Soft-boiled eggs may contain bacteria or parasites, while fried eggs cooked with excessive oil may negatively impact individuals with obesity, hyperlipidemia, and high cholesterol.

Conclusion: Eggs are beneficial when consumed in moderation, and there is no need to worry about their negative effects.
