Egg consumption and risk of heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke: results from 2 prospective cohorts.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26399866

Consuming foods high in cholesterol has long been thought to increase your serum cholesterol and increase your risk of heart attack and stroke. Egg yolks, for better or worse, became the poster child of unhealthy foods because of their reputation for being high in dietary cholesterol. As a result of this bad rap, some folks may avoid egg yolks while others avoid eggs entirely. The purpose of this video is to dispel the notion that egg yolks are bad for your health. And for the simplicities sake, we’ll be focused exclusively on chicken eggs.

I think it’s also worth commenting on the nutritional value of eggs. 1 large chicken egg contains:
70 calories, 5g of fat, mostly unsaturated, 1g of carbohydrates, 6g of protein
It is high in Vitamins A, D and E as well as Vitamins B12, riboflavin, folic acid, and niacin
It contains the minerals iron, calcium, phosphate, and zinc
It also contains lutein and carotenoid zeaxanthin,
It’s worth noting also that 90% of the nutritional content is in the yolk, so dont skip it
