Group Recommended Intake
Healthy adults 1 egg per day (up to 7 per week)
People with heart disease or diabetes 3–4 eggs per week
Children and teens 5–6 eggs per week
Athletes or bodybuilders 2–3 eggs per day (more whites than yolks)
Eating eggs in moderation, as part of a balanced diet, provides far more benefits than risks. Remember: it’s not about cutting out eggs and it’s about how you cook them, what you eat them with, and how they fit into your overall lifestyle.
In short, eggs aren’t your enemy. When enjoyed responsibly, they can be one of the simplest, most affordable ways to nourish your body every day.
