Using a technique called targeted nuclear magnetic resonance to measure 225 metabolites, their analysis showed that those who ate eggs in moderation had higher levels of so-called apolipoprotein A1.
This is considered the building-block of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), also known as “good lipoprotein”.
These molecules can help “clear” cholesterol from your blood and therefore help protect your heart.
The team concluded that participants who ate fewer eggs had lower levels of beneficial metabolites and higher levels of harmful ones in their blood, compared to those who ate eggs more regularly.
