This is not just theory. In one alarming case, a 30-year-old man in China was hospitalized after suffering a mild stroke. In spite of eating clean and freshly prepared boiled eggs daily, he was found to have cholesterol levels more than double the safe limit — soaring from 5.1 mmol/L to 11 mmol/L. This incident serves as a wake-up call for those who believe boiled eggs are harmless in any quantity.

Who Should Be Cautious with Eggs?

Although eggs are highly nutritious, they are not suitable for unrestricted consumption — especially for people with underlying health conditions. The following groups need to monitor their egg intake closely:

* People with heart disease, high cholesterol, hypertension, or diabetes:

These people are at higher cardiovascular risk. Experts from Cleveland Clinic (USA) recommend limiting egg consumption to no more than one egg per week for people with a history of blood clotting or atherosclerosis.

* Those with lipid disorders:

Limit intake to one egg per day, and stick to healthier cooking methods such as steaming, boiling, or soup-based preparations to reduce cholesterol exposure.

* People with serious cardiovascular conditions:

Should limit egg intake to 2–3 eggs per week, spaced out across several days, and avoid heavy seasoning or frying.
