| All right, for today’s edition of Sunday with Sisson, I’m going to remind you to do something you might’ve forgotten: eat more eggs. Eggs are so common that they retreat into the background of the conscious dieter. People stop thinking about them and they often fall by the wayside, but they’re essential. I see a lot of carnivore dieters who eat none of them, instead focusing on enormous steaks. Steaks are great, but eggs are incredible. Let's get into some reasons you might not know about. A recent study came out tracking egg intake and Alzheimer’s incidence in older adults. Those who ate the most eggs actually had a lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s. The analysis found that most of the reduced risk came down to the choline content of eggs, which is found only in the yolks. They even did brain autopsies on those who died over the tracking period, and the egg eaters had less pathological progression in the brain. This also builds on previous research showing that low levels of circulating choline are associated with faster progression of Alzheimer’s pathology. And choline isn't just for brain health. You need choline for your liver to function correctly, too, especially if you’re eating a high-fat diet like keto or carnivore. Without enough choline, your liver can’t process the fat properly, and you risk developing fatty liver. Also, a reminder to eat whole eggs. The yolk contains the choline, of course, but it also contains cholesterol—which you need to manufacture anabolic hormones. Research shows that eating whole eggs produces more gains in strength and testosterone after resistance training than an equivalent amount of egg whites alone. Eggs are far more than just protein. You can’t only look at the protein content to gauge their effectiveness at building muscle and making you stronger. How do you eat eggs? How many do you eat a day?
