Why Eggs Are So Valuable

Eating about six to eight eggs every day, especially kienyeji or free-range eggs, is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to nourish your body.

Ignore the fear around cholesterol. I have taught you enough already.

Yes, eggs contain cholesterol, and that is not the enemy. Cholesterol is a building block of life.

Your body, especially the liver, uses cholesterol to make brain cells, nerve cells, cell membranes, sex hormones, stress hormones like cortisol, aldosterone and to heal inflammation in blood vessels.

This is why eggs are so valuable.

Eggs also come with healthy fats, and these fats are necessary for the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.

Without enough fat in your diet, you can eat “healthy foods” and still fail to absorb key nutrients.

Whether you eat eggs or not, your liver will still manufacture cholesterol for survival. So the idea that eggs will “clog your arteries” is a myth that ignores basic human biology.

Think about it!!

Breast milk is rich in cholesterol, and egg yolk is loaded with cholesterol. We don’t give cholesterol-lowering drugs to babies or to chicks after they hatch.

Cholesterol is foundational to growth, healing, and life itself.

The real problem is not eggs, it’s what you cook them with. Avoid seed oils.
Fry or scramble your eggs in butter, ghee, coconut oil, or tallow.

Eat your eggs freely. By providing your body with ready-made cholesterol, you ease the burden on the liver so it can focus on other critical functions that keep you healthy.
