A few days ago, my man chanced upon this article and felt it interesting enough to share with me.
I read it, thought about it, and went "Hmmm....interesting indeed." I then decided to change my habit of chucking the 4 egg yolks whenever I made my oats & eggs meal as fuel after workout.
What got us thinking was the point where it mentioned that if we cut down on our cholesterol intake, our bodies will "upregulate" by making more cholesterol to meet our bodies' needs. If that's true, then all the years of our consciously cutting down on high-cholesterol food may just be futile?!
So tonight, I reminded myself to keep the yolk when cooking my oats & eggs dinner. The result, yuck. I don't like the taste and smell of the egg yolks with my oats. Maybe I have gotten used to just oats and egg whites. Or maybe the yolks made it thicker which I didn't like. Or maybe I just lost the appreciation for egg yolks after chucking them all these years. Maybe.
Food for thought, definitely.
