6 eggs at breakfast every day?

My doctor's advice (which is also official government advice for high cholestorol) was two egg yellows max every week - that includes any foods that use egg yellows.

Egg whites you have more leeway and theoretically one could use 6 egg whites every day but that would include heavy exercise.

Isn't the high cholesterol thing proven false?

Yes, there are indications that for some reasons eggs are better for you, than their cholesterol level should indicate. But it’s nowhere near “proven”. And that that high cholesterol is fine, is not even there. Currently, it’s still better to avoid high cholesterol meals. All of them.

did many tests throughout the years, never had issues with cholestorol.
