Nick, a soon-to-be Harvard graduate, spent a month eating 720 eggs to find out how it would affect his cholesterol levels. As a result, he received unexpected information.
A lover of interesting experiments, Nick decided to eat 24 eggs a day to understand how this would affect his metabolism and cholesterol. Over the course of a month, she prepared eggs in a variety of ways (fried, boiled, omelette, and even deviled) to add more variety to her diet. According to Nick, eggs are a very versatile food that can be cooked in many different ways without being boring.
The experiment was divided into two stages: Nick followed a low-carb diet for the first two weeks, eating mostly eggs, and then added carbs for the remaining two weeks. The main goal of the experiment was to demonstrate how various factors can affect metabolism and cholesterol levels.
Cholesterol levels were expected to remain unchanged on eggs and a low-carbohydrate diet, which was true. But when carbohydrates were added back, cholesterol levels began to drop. Nick attributed this to metabolic changes in the body after adapting to a low-carb diet.
However, Norwitz’s main finding was not just about cholesterol levels. He realized that when choosing the optimal diet for each person, it was necessary to take into account their initial metabolic state and goals. Longevity may be a priority for some, heart health for others, or management of chronic inflammatory diseases for others.
“Cursor” previously said that Scientists have discovered what type of diet can protect you from a common type of cancer. Bowel cancer is one of the most common and dangerous cancers due to its late diagnosis, but there is an effective way to prevent it.
