egg yolk

    
Egg yolk can be extremely hazardous to health, especially for people who have problems with cholesterol, it is even more harmful than fast-food preparations, according to a recent study.
Canadian doctors have made public a study in which they warned those at risk of heart attack or stroke on the dangers of high cholesterol.The study published in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology "underscores the fact that egg yolk is more dangerous than fast-food meals.
This idea is supported by comparing the amount of cholesterol in the two types of food.
Experts say that the yolk contains between 215-275 milligrams of cholesterol, according to egg size, while fast-food products have a content of up to 150 milligrams of cholesterol.
In the same study shows that people with diabetes may suffer from increased cholesterol in cardiovascular disease by drinking egg yolk.
For diabetics that serve an egg every day, chances of developing cardiovascular disease doubles.
"There's no doubt about the whites, who still remained one of the most important sources of quality protein. Yolk, in turn, should not be eaten under any circumstances by adults who have a genetic predisposition to heart disease, Canadian doctors say.
