MYTH #1: Eggs raise your cholesterol
One of the most persistent nutrition myths! But today we know that dietary cholesterol has little impact on blood cholesterol for most people. In fact, about 80% of blood cholesterol is produced by your own liver. When you eat more cholesterol, your body compensates by making less.
In some individuals with genetic conditions (like familial hypercholesterolemia), this regulation can be impaired.
What actually affects your LDL (“bad”) cholesterol levels is a diet high in:• Saturated fats (butter, cheese, red meats, processed meats)
• Trans fats (some packaged snacks, baked goods)
• Refined sugars
• And low in fiber and healthy fats (like those from fish, nuts, and olive oil). 
Physical activity also plays a key role!
