[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 4074, member: 3"] [ATTACH=CONFIG]428[/ATTACH][B] Egg consumption modulates HDL lipid composition and increases the cholesterol-accepting capacity of serum in metabolic syndrome.[/B] Authors: Andersen CJ,et al.

Abstract We recently demonstrated that [B]daily whole egg consumption during moderate carbohydrate restriction leads to greater increases in plasma HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) and improvements in HDL profiles in metabolic syndrome (MetS) when compared to intake of a yolk-free egg substitute.
