Dietary Cholesterol or Egg Consumption and Cardiovascular Outcomes
Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: To the Editor Based on an analysis of 6 prospective cohorts, Dr Zhong and colleagues concluded that “higher consumption of dietary cholesterol or eggs was significantly associated with higher risk of incident CVD [cardiovascular disease] and all-cause mortality in a dose-response manner” and noted these findings should be considered “in the development of dietary guidelines and updates.” At issue is whether their findings, which differ from some previously published meta-analyses onthis topic, are sufficiently robust to be considered in guidelines.
