Two Foods I'll Never Stop Eating

[Mr_Luke]

I only eat about 20 - 25 different whole foods, and besides beans, these are two of my most important foods.
Runny eggs and red potatoes baked on a silicone baking sheet.

Which came first, the potato or the egg?

 

[AZjeff]

Okay. Is there a health lesson?

I'm lost for words.

 

[Mr_Luke]

There is for my body.
Eating 3-4 eggs a day lowered my cholesterol from 248 to I used to have to wear glasses when I drove my car in Tennessee but no more.
I outgrew them and the day came when I could see better without them.
Confirmed by my eye MD.

That's really interesting. Where did you get the idea to eat 3-4 eggs a day?

Edit: There was a time when it was thought that eating eggs raised cholesterol, that's been proven not true but I've never heard that eating eggs lowers it.

I’ll stick to my 2 hard boiled eggs, lots of vegetables and tofu. Occasional beer and lots of water thank you

The potatoes are verbotten for a Ty-2 diabetic. When a guy gets about 72 the doctors pretty much tell you to quit eating, everything is bad for you.

I was expecting Pizza and Steak

Won't give up eggs, that is for sure. Eat them every morning.

No potatoes here for the same reason as above. Once a week I have a couple of eggs either scrambled or hard boiled. I like them cooked all the way.


No bacon?

I like to drink my Carbs thank you very much In all seriousness I do come on here and promote whole foods getting lean and building muscle for many reasons. I do look like a hypocrite I’m the first one to admit it when I say and suggest this and that than I’m over on the beer thread posting many beers generally on weekend. Craft beer has always been something I had passion for and it continues to be but also working out 6days a week as I enjoy that as much as well.

whole eggs are one of the best real foods, potatoes are just OK unless eaten RAW like 4 qts of mlk i drink weekly, down from 6 while working! Sten Ekburg ate a 100 eggs in 10 days + he noted he got no bad effects but hes surely above average before that.

Which is why I stopped listening to doctors about 40 years ago.

Many of the best health forums I'm on are big into eggs.
Chris Masterjohn PhD, also Chris Kresser, Ray Peat PhD, and many more
have good info on the benefits of eating 3-4 eggs per day, every day.

Runny eggs taste better and are actually better for you because the fats in the yolk aren't as oxidized.
We eat all beans except soy.
Soybeans / tofu are a thyroid disruptor, for one thing.

Quite a collection of the pseudo-science (and non MD) dudes there. Never miss an opportunity to promote them, right?

Yes I know you've stopped listening to doctors but what you do listen to isn't an upgrade.
