An egg a day keeps the doctor away, according to a new study out of China.
Researchers at Peking University Health Science Center found that the simple and cheap food, once thought to raise unhealthy cholesterol levels, dramatically protects the heart.
They discovered that daily egg consumption is linked to 26 percent reduced stroke risk and 18 percent reduced cardiovascular disease risk.

“The present study finds that there is an association between moderate level of egg consumption (up to 1 egg/day) and a lower cardiac event rate,” lead scientists Professor Liming Li and Canqing Yu wrote in the journal Heart.
The researchers examined the diets of 416,000 people between the ages of 30 and 79.
Subjects were asked how often they consumed eggs. Their health was then documented over a period of around nine years.

The 13 percent of participants who ate one egg a day were found to have more than a quarter less chance of suffering from a hemorrhagic stroke, which occurs when there’s bleeding in or around the brain.
They also had 28 percent less risk of death caused by a hemorrhagic stroke, and an 18 percent reduced chance of dying from cardiovascular disease.

Day before yesterday, eggs were good. Yesterday, eggs were bad. Today they're good. Tomorrow eggs will be bad.
Like, can't nutritionists make up their minds? One study says something and they all glom onto it until the next study.

I like my eggs raw mixed with rice the most, but sometimes I go for regular omelette as well. To be honest I can't think of a bad dish that involves eggs as a main ingredient

Honestly, there are so many nutrition studies with conflicting finds that I can't trust anything I hear about food anymore.

Are you sure China didn't just push the article so they could get away with stir fry?
