    Eggs Are Bad Food -Roger Mason

    Eggs are one of the top ten allergenic foods along with milk and dairy, peanuts, citrus fruit, Nightshade vegetables (potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers). A medium egg has 250 mg of artery clogging cholesterol. Some people (like George Harrison and Linda McCartney)  called (they're dead now) themselves "vegetarians", but ate eggs. Since when do eggs grow on trees? Eggs are bad food folks, and they should not be in your diet. You are literally better off eating red meat instead of eggs. People like Jack LaLanne, Bruce West, Suzanne Somers, Robert Atkins, Dr. Mercola, William Douglass, Dr. Perricone, Andy Weil, Dr. Rowen and the Life Extinction crowd will all tell you eggs are a wonderful food. They're wrong. 
     
    What scientific, empirical proof do we have that eggs are bad for our health? Plenty of clinical studies from around the world in top medical journals.  
     
    At the University of Minnesota (American J. Epidemiol. v. 149, 1999) 29,083 postmenopausal women were studied. "Consumption of eggs was also associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer" was their conclusion. This is almost 30,000 real women. American women have epidemic rates of ovarian, cervical, and uterine cancer. Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    At Centro di Oncologico in Italy (Brit. J. Cancer v. 80, 1999) 1,491 men and women were studied for oral and throat cancer. "After allowance for education, smoking, alcohol and total energy intake, significant trends of increasing risk with increasing intake emerged for eggs, processed meats, cakes and desserts, and butter" they concluded. Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    The Japanese used to have very low rates of diabetes and cancer, especially colon cancer. As they Westernize their diet and eat meat, eggs, and milk, and eat less rice and vegetables this has all changed. At Aichi Cancer Research Center in Japan they said the rapidly rising rates of diabetes and colon cancer were closely associated with the increased consumption of meat, eggs and milk (Asian Pacific J. of Cancer Prev. v. 5, 2004). Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    At the Hipple Cancer Research Center (Nutr. Cancer v. 46, 2003)  they studied 34 different countries for the relation of egg consumption to colon and rectal cancer rates.  This is 34 entire countries folks. They found "...egg consumption was associated with an increased risk of colon and rectal cancer."  They studied thirty-four different countries and proven egg consumption causes cancer. What can be clearer than this? Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    At the University of Queensland (Cancer Epidem. Bio. Prev. v. 11, 2002) ovarian cancer was clearly associated with egg consumption with 20 references. They compared healthy women with cancer patients. "There was a strong (note the word "strong") and significant dose-response relation between cholesterol from eggs and risk of ovarian cancer." Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    1 in 8 American women will get breast cancer. At Harvard University (Inter. J. Epidem. v. 31, 2002) the doctors found breast cancer to be clearly related to egg consumption studying 351,041 women. That is one third of one million women. This is right from Harvard, folks. One third of a million women prove eating eggs causes cancer. 
     
    Again at Harvard University (Amer. J. Epidem. v. 156, 2002) ovarian cancer was found to be clearly associated with egg consumption. "...an increase in risk with frequent intake of eggs was observed." Right from Harvard folks. Eggs cause cancer.
     

    Want more from Harvard? 21,327 doctors in the Physician's Health Study over a 20 Year period (Amer. J. Clin. Nutr. 87, 2008) were found the die earlier from all cause Mortality depending on how many eggs they ate. Just eating a mere one egg a day caused the worst mortality of 23% more overall deaths. You cannot argue with over 20,000 people over a 20 year period. Eggs cause overall mortality. 

     
    In Uruguay (Eur. J. Cancer Prev. v. 10, 2001)  people with bladder cancer were studied. It was found that consumption of meat, salted meat, and eggs, "was associated with significant increased risk of bladder cancer." Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    The evidence shows eggs are bad food for any race or culture of people. At Beijing Cancer Research Institute in 2000 (Zhonghua Liu Xing v. 21, 2000) Breast cancer in Chinese women was found to be associated with obesity, intake of milk and dairy products, depression, dysmennorhea, and eating eggs. Eggs cause cancer. 
     
    We can go on with studies like this all day with real people all over the world. The proof is in, and the facts show that eggs should not be a part of our diet. Eggs are bad food. Anytime you find some natural health "expert" advising you to eat eggs you know he or she is a fraud,  phony, poseur, and just plain stupid.  Take eggs out of your diet.
