For many, cholesterol is a dirty word when it comes to heart health. But is it all bad? With so much conflicting information out there, it’s easy to get confused. In this blog, we’re setting the record straight on cholesterol—what it does, what causes it to rise, and most importantly, how you can keep it in check.
When you think about cholesterol, we sometimes ask the questions, “What does it do” “What causes it to rise”?, and “the biggest one how to keep track of it” Our professional coaches team is here to help you figure out your answers to these questions. We will check out how some myths effect our judgement when it comes to thoughts on cholesterol.
Busting the myths about cholesterol. Something that many of us enjoy, not just as a stable during breakfast, but throughout the day; EGGS!
Don’t shy away from Eating Eggs!!
For many years, we have been told “Don’t eat eggs because they are high in cholesterol”. But the latest research has shown that most people can eat 1-2 eggs per day without affecting their cholesterol levels.
The actual truth is that dietary sources of cholesterol have minimal effect on your blood levels. It’s your liver that makes most of the cholesterol in your body! Your liver has a nifty way of sensing the required amount of cholesterol your body needs. Studies have also shown that eating an egg a day was not linked to higher rates of heart attack or stroke.
Eggs are considered a protein superfood because they are loaded with vitamins, minerals, high-quality protein, and almost every vitamin and mineral required by the human body. And what many people don’t realize is that most of this fabulous nutrition is in the yolk!!
One of our Coaches often cooks a batch of hard-boiled eggs to keep in the refrigerator as a go-to protein snack to have throughout a busy week instead of reaching for the chips or cookies.
So, fear not—have your eggs and eat the yolk too! So; we ask you what is your biggest concern about your cholesterol? We have professional coaches available to help you with any questions you may have.
