Eggs

[samspade]

Question - how many of you eat eggs regularly, and do they ever affect your digestion?

I've been eating boiled eggs to keep my appetite regulated. They help a lot.

Only thing is, once in a while it happens that I'm on the can within a few hours (sometimes more than once). This happened yesterday and today, but hadn't happened in over a week. It seems like one in every ten eggs goes right through me. But I don't feel any nausea or other type of sickness. (Could be lack of fiber?)

I eat eggs a few times a week. I usually mix it up from hard boiled, egg salad, over easy, sunny side up, scrambled, etc. Eggs can make some people have bowel movements more than the usual due to chem. composition of the egg. It's completely normal.

When I'm in peak training & eating time I can eat up to 8 soft scrambled eggs for breakfast. I poop once a day every day around the same time.

Are you only on eggs when this happens, or drinking a beer with eggs or adding veggies?
I eat many eggs, usually hard boiled with the opposite effect. Currently Carnivore to ace my BMI.

Usually I eat something with it - some carrots, olives, maybe a little cheese. Sometimes in a salad. On occasion I just eat the egg itself if I'm not that hungry. (I haven't noticed if it happens with or without veggies though....usually with I think...)

I eat 3 eggs every morning. Still dealing with constipation tbh

Beware the flatulence.

I would pound a bunch of eggs only after your next bm and wait to see. Basically an elimination.

Every morning 5 eggs and a cup of egg whites.... with Turkey bacon... and a banana... no issue. Sometimes the coffee hits and then I drop a few pounds... but the eggs don’t go thru me

I used to eat lots of eggs. Now I can't. My gut can't deal with it anymore.

 

[Pierce Manhammer]

I eat eggs too usually with sliced tomatoes or somesuch never a problem. Great protein source and cheap.

Try egg white powder for smoothies, again cheap and nutritious.

I believe the yolks is the source of the digestion issues. I have this too when I eat too many whole eggs. Though I drink on average two cups of egg whites a day, and don't have any digestion issues. If it's not the yolk that's causing it, then it could be that pasteurizing egg whites mitgate the digestive issues.

I have eaten 12 a day... not all the time but occasionally... and my cholesterol is perfect. I do average 3 dozen whole eggs a week.

A lot of people don't realise the difference between foods containing cholesterol and foods causing high cholesterol

I eat hard boiled eggs 2-3 times per week. They are one of the easiest things on my stomach to digest. Funny I just left my mother's house about 30 mins ago. Was talking to her about all of the BS my generation was fed as kids, mostly from school. One thing was the fact that we were told that eggs were one of the worst foods in the world nutrition wise, when in fact they are one of the best.

Makes one wonder if it was intentional.

It was bad for me

 

[EyeBRollin]

My parents steered me off of eggs growing up because they are “loaded with cholesterol.” I just got into consistent egg consumption about 2 years ago. Adding eggs has actually improved my bloodwork ever since.

I think it was. Schools also told us that it was OK to eat a big plate of bad carbs but should only eat a tiny azz piece of meat that a 3 x year old couldn't fill up on.. I think the schools did that on purpose because carb foods are cheaper than meat. Propaganda.
