Eggs in a Healthy Diet My daughter colored some Easter eggs last night and that got me thinking about eggs and good nutrition. Eggs were taken off of many people's diet food lists because they contain a lot of cholesterol. That's unfortunate, because eggs also contain lots of important nutrients. Actually, there are plenty of studies showing that eating one egg each day will not raise your cholesterol or lower your HDL, so almost everyone can enjoy eggs as part of a healthy diet.
Poll:What is your favorite style of eggs?
