Advertisement Eating 12 Eggs In One Week May Not Be Linked To Increase In Cardiometabolic Risk Factors In Individuals With T2D, Research Suggests.

reports that researchers found that “eating 12 eggs in 1 week was apparently not tied to an increase in cardiometabolic risk factors among people with type 2 diabetes (T2D).” The investigators found, “in the Diabetes and Egg...study, participants who went on a high-egg diet (defined as eating more than 12 eggs a week) or a low-egg diet (no more than one egg a week) during a 3-month weight-loss period lost the same 3.1 kg (6.8 lbs) of weight over a subsequent 6-month follow-up period.” Meanwhile, the findings “showed no difference in glycemia, traditional serum lipids, markers of inflammation, oxidative stress, or adiponectin between the groups during this time.” The research was published online in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. https://www.medpagetoday.com/cardiology/diabetes/72766
