Eggs are a staple food for many, but especially for fitness enthusiasts, they are a rich source of protein, vitamins and minerals.

However, many have proved that because of its high cholesterol content, this innocent food is considered risky for heart health.

Jessie Inchausp is a French biochemist and bestselling author of the books Glucose Revolution and The Glucose Goddess Method

The French biochemist explains in the caption, "I eat 3 to 4 eggs a day... and I know what you're going to say: 'Aren't eggs bad for your heart?' So let's set the record straight: eggs are amazing!" she said emphatically.

What You Get In One Whole Egg?

One large egg, according to Inchausp , contains:

  • 78 calories
  • 6 grams of protein
  • 5 grams of fat
  • Vitamin B12: 23% DV
  • Riboflavin (B2): 20% DV
  • Pantothenic acid (B5): 14% DV
  • Selenium: 28% DV
  • Plus smaller amounts of vitamin A, folate, phosphorus, vitamin D, E, B6, calcium and zinc.

She further said in the video, "Eggs are healthy and amazing. I have eggs every single day. There doesn't need to be a limit on how many eggs you consume. Cholesterol in eggs is not damaging."

What Is Causing Your Heart Damage?

According to the biochemist, "The first factors behind heart disease are small, dense LDL particles, and the second factor of heart disease is inflammation and oxidation of these particles in the bloodstream," she explained.

So, how do we avoid having unhealthy fats in our blood, and how do we avoid oxidation?

Insisting on cutting back sugar, Inchausp says, "The first thing we need to do is to reduce sugar, because sugar and high insulin and high fructose in the body will make both of those things worse. It will prompt your liver to produce unhealthy LDL particles and contribute to oxidative stress in your bloodstream."
