Dear Diana,

 

Here is your latest health tip on the topic of...

 

Eggs and Cholesterol

 

The egg has been much maligned over the years with the

popularity of low-fat diets. Recently, a nutrition

conference entitled " Where Would We Be Without the Egg? A

Conference About Nature's Original Functional Food " was

held, and the abstracts of the presentations were

published as a supplement to the October issue of the

Journal of the American College of Nutrition.

 

Here we present a summary of some of the important

information presented.

 

Where would we be without the egg?

 

Dr. Clare M. Hasler, Ph.D, of the University of Illinois

gave a presentation entitled " The Changing Face of

Functional Foods " in which she defines 'functional foods'

as " .those providing health benefits beyond basic

nutrition and include whole, fortified, enriched or

enhanced foods which have a potentially beneficial effect

on health. "

 

She notes that " eggs have not traditionally been regarded

as a functional food, primarily due to concerns about

their adverse effects on serum cholesterol levels. "

However, " it is now known that there is little if any

connection between dietary cholesterol and blood

cholesterol levels. " she states.

 

In addition, Dr. Hasler notes that " .eggs are an excellent

dietary source of many essential (e.g., protein, choline)

and non-essential (e.g., lutein/zeaxanthin) components

which may promote optimal health. "
