Each large egg contains about 186 milligrams of cholesterol, and the
USDA recommends that we limit our cholesterol intake to 300 milligrams
per day.
While they may be high in cholesterol, eggs are a lot more than just that
and protein. They also contain antioxidants that help with eye health
(lutein and zeaxanthin), vitamins A, B12, D, riboflavin, folate, and
phosphorous, and an essential nutrient called choline, which helps with
brain function.
