“…Large epidemiological works have been conducted to investigate the effect of egg intake on blood cholesterol levels and risk of CVD in children [123], young people [16, 20, 47, 124], women [12–14, 125, 195, 196], men [12–14, 125, 195–199], and older adults [12–14, 125, 195–200]. Some have shown that egg consumption did influence the blood cholesterol level but did not increase the risk of CVD in healthy people.…”

Nutrient deficiencies and excess are involved in many aspects of human health. As a source of essential nutrients, eggs have been used worldwide to support the nutritional needs of human societies. On the other hand, eggs also contain a significant amount of cholesterol, a lipid molecule that has been associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases. Whether the increase of egg consumption will lead to elevated cholesterol absorption and disruption of cholesterol homeostasis has been a concern of debate for a while. Cholesterol homeostasis is regulated through its dietary intake, endogenous biosynthesis, utilization, and excretion. Recently, some research interests have been paid to the effects of egg consumption on cholesterol homeostasis through the intestinal cholesterol absorption. Nutrient components in eggs such as phospholipids may contribute to this process. The goals of this review are to summarize the recent progress in this area and to discuss some potential benefits of egg consumption.

“…Consumption of eggs for breakfast has additionally been shown to increased satiety in overweight/obese women [ 154 ] and healthy men [ 155 ] when compared to a bagel breakfast, while also promoting weight loss and reductions in daily caloric intake [ 155 , 156 ]. Increased satiety from egg consumption has also been observed in young adults [ 157 ]. Together, these findings suggest that egg consumption may improve inflammation in overweight/obese individuals undergoing weight loss—either through direct action of bioactive components or indirect action of promoting satiety, weight loss, and restoration of adipose tissue function.…”

Inflammation is a normal acute response of the immune system to pathogens and tissue injury. However, chronic inflammation is known to play a significant role in the pathophysiology of numerous chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and cancer. Thus, the impact of dietary factors on inflammation may provide key insight into mitigating chronic disease risk. Eggs are recognized as a functional food that contain a variety of bioactive compounds that can influence pro- and anti-inflammatory pathways. Interestingly, the effects of egg consumption on inflammation varies across different populations, including those that are classified as healthy, overweight, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetic. The following review will discuss the pro- and anti-inflammatory properties of egg components, with a focus on egg phospholipids, cholesterol, the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, and bioactive proteins. The effects of egg consumption of inflammation across human populations will additionally be presented. Together, these findings have implications for population-specific dietary recommendations and chronic disease risk.

“…Of the more recent studies completed ( Table 2 ), five of the seven studies have shown no adverse effects on the lipid profile following a high egg intake [ 66 , 67 , 68 , 70 , 71 ] and two have shown improvements in circulating lipids with an increased egg consumption [ 61 , 69 ].…”

Egg Consumption and Human Cardio-Metabolic Health in People with and without Diabetes

The guidelines for dietary cholesterol and/or egg intake for both the general population and those at higher risk of cardiovascular disease (for example, people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)) differ between countries, and even for different specialist societies in a country. The disparity between these guidelines is at least in part related to the conflicting evidence as to the effects of eggs in the general population and in those with T2DM. This review addresses the effect of eggs on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk from both epidemiological research and controlled prospective studies, in people with and without cardio-metabolic disease. It also examines the nutritional qualities of eggs and whether they may offer protection against chronic disease. The evidence suggests that a diet including more eggs than is recommended (at least in some countries) may be used safely as part of a healthy diet in both the general population and for those at high risk of cardiovascular disease, those with established coronary heart disease, and those with T2DM. In conclusion, an approach focused on a person’s entire dietary intake as opposed to specific foods or nutrients should be the heart of population nutrition guidelines.
