Even when the "experts" were telling us to limit ourselves to 2-3 eggs per week, I ignored that. I eat 2-3 eggs (2 if they're jumbo; 3 if they're not) almost every day. Probably 5 days a week, on average. I've always thought of eggs as nature's own multivitamin and mineral "capsule," because they're LOADED with vitamins, and not just minerals, but ALL essential trace elements: copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, selenium, and zinc. I'm 70, and don't take any prescription medication at all. 🍳

Just eat eggs and ground beef. You'll live better than 99% of people. Cheaper too.

Yes but be careful about which ones. Look for pasteurized eggs from a small family farm. Do NOT BUY VITAL FARMS eggs. They're owned by BlackRock and they are lying about what they are.

I eat 3-4 organic soft boiled eggs a day… bioavailable fat-soluble vitamins (A, B-12, B-5, D, E, K & folate) & my favorite B-7 Biotin hair & nails ….. with glass of raw hemp seed milk with the fiber 🤍

And cholesterol. The brain contains 20% of overall cholesterol in the body. Statins will give you dementia faster than not eating eggs at all. I eat 4 farm fresh eggs a day, straight from my chickens.

I wonder if the growth in Alzheimer's disease could have come from the FDA telling folks that eggs were bad all those years.

Yep! Eggs are high in cholesterol, the brain runs on cholesterol, do the math.

Make sure they are real eggs first. There are a lot of fake eggs out there manufactured in China then distributed. Most real egg packaging will say produced in such and such place (local egg farms). Fake egg packaging will say distributed or manufactured.

…I assume the study tested chicken eggs…. How about duck eggs? Bigger, “heavier” but just as delicious!

Thank you for posting this. My husband and I started eating eggs every day for the last six months. We are in our late 60s and grew up eating eggs all of the time. Then of course the so called experts said not to.

This is really ridiculous 99 % of white population eat several eggs a week and forms major Alzheimer’s disease population. However, this disease hardly occurs in plant based diet rural populations not exposed to industrialised processed food and how do you explain that?

Wait eggs bad. That's what health departments / doctors / media have been saying for decades. Are they full of shit?

Doctors: Eggs are bad. Also doctors: Eggs are good. Doctors: Eggs are bad. Also doctors: Eggs are good. Doctors: Eggs are bad. Also doctors: Eggs are good. Common sense: Eggs -> cholesterol -> used to synthesize ALL hormones -> therefore, good.

@graciegirl1014 Natural choline. There are different types and people react differently because of their genetics. Research before you supplement. Which Type of Choline Works Best with Your Genes?

Egg yokes - eating them cooked sunny side up - zapped the spike proteins helping prevent SARS and COVID-19. Remember during COVID all the chicken farms were burning down and millions of chickens in USA ( but not Mexico etc) were slaughtered due to a fake fowl disease that didn’t kill geese or any other bird - just chickens. Eggs were scarce and price very high to prevent Americans from eating them.

I think you need more than 1 egg a week for it to make a difference to health.

Eggs are a superfood. Just one egg a week can lower the risk of these issues.

think claims like these are heavily exaggerated. I stopped eating eggs and chicken back on May 20th, and the boost in my focus and cognitive performance has been remarkable. Personal experience often tells a very different story than these broad studies.

Vitamin D supplementation was associated with a 40% lower risk of dementia over a decade. After five years, 84% of supplement users were dementia-free compared to just 68% of non-users in a study of over 12,000 people. Vitamin D reduced dementia risk by 33% in adults with mild cognitive impairment or APOE e4, a key genetic risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. Vitamin D isn’t just a vitamin—it's a steroid hormone regulating over 2,000 genes critical for brain development, neuroplasticity, and inflammation control. Its roles include clearing amyloid beta plaques and tau buildup, boosting neuron survival via neurotrophic factors like BDNF, and enhancing brain connectivity, particularly when paired with exercise. It’s no surprise, then, that higher vitamin D levels are associated with better cognition, larger hippocampal volume, and lower Alzheimer’s risk. Multiple lines of evidence support this. More than 30 large studies have consistently linked low vitamin D levels to a 50–150% increased dementia risk. People genetically prone to low vitamin D—those with genetic variations affecting vitamin D production or metabolism—have a 54% higher dementia risk. Furthermore, supplementing with 800 IU/day of vitamin D improves memory and cognitive function in people with mild cognitive impairment and more serious forms of dementia. To learn more about optimizing vitamin D levels for cognitive health, including underlying brain-protective mechanisms and practical supplementation protocols, see the latest FoundMyFitness video.
