Evaluating your likely current (and near future) state of health means taking into account the risk factors — such as egg consumption — that affect you. Our medical diagnosis tool, The Analyst™, identifies major risk factors by asking the right questions.
How high would you rate your overall consumption of eggs and egg-containing foods? Eggs are an ingredient of many foods such as mayonnaise, most cakes, many desserts, breads, other flour-based products.
Possible responses:
→ None - I carefully avoid eggs and egg products→ Lower than average - I usually avoid eggs → About average / don't know → High - I enjoy eggs most/every day |
Gallstones are caused by changes in bile, which is a fluid produced by the liver to help digest food. When changes in bile occur, such as high level of cholesterol, it can cause bile to crystallize and form gallstones. Eggs are naturally high in fats and cholesterol and higher intake can increase risk of Gallbladder disease.
