I shared some of my other Freedom of Information Act finds in my last egg video, Eggs vs. Cigarettes in Atherosclerosis (
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/eggs-vs-cigarettes-in-atherosclerosis/).
I've also explored the presence of carcinogenic chemicals in eggs (Heterocyclic Amines in Eggs, Cheese, and Creatine?
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/heterocyclic-amines-in-eggs-cheese-and-creatine/), carcinogenic viruses (Carcinogenic Retrovirus Found in Eggs,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/carcinogenic-retrovirus-found-in-eggs/), industrial pollutants (Food Sources of Perfluorochemicals,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-sources-of-perfluorochemicals/ and Food Sources of PCB Chemical Pollutants,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-sources-of-pcb-chemical-pollutants/), the eggborne annual epidemic of Salmonella (Total Recall,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/total-recall/), arachidonic acid (Chicken, Eggs, and Inflammation,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/chicken-eggs-and-inflammation/), misleading claims about eyesight nutrients (Egg Industry Blind Spot,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/egg-industry-blind-spot/), and, of course, cholesterol (Egg Cholesterol in the Diet,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/egg-cholesterol-in-the-diet/ and What Women Should Eat to Live Longer,
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/what-women-should-eat-to-live-longer/). To my surprise, though, eggs are actually not the most concentrated dietary source of cholesterol. See Avoiding Cholesterol Is a No Brainer (
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/avoiding-cholesterol-is-a-no-brainer/).
Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at
