ALLERGY DEVELOPMENT

Regular consumption of eggs may cause allergy, but mostly in children. These may also be seen as skin rash, respiratory problems, or even anaphylaxis which may be life-threatening.

Excessive egg eating can disturb the gut microbiome balance causing digestive issues such as bloating, gas, and discomfort.

INCREASED CHOLESTEROL LEVELS

Consuming eggs each day is associated with high LDL cholesterol levels which increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
