Headline reads: Seven or more eggs a week raises risk of death.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080409/hl_nm/eggs_death_dc
I'd suspect a design flaw somewhere here, personally. At best, it seems like they are making an association, not a causative link. The last, tiny, paragraph of the article notes:
| Quote: | | Men who ate the most eggs also were older, fatter, ate more vegetables but less breakfast cereal, and were more likely to drink alcohol, smoke and less likely to exercise -- all factors that can affect the risk of heart attack and death. |

I think we can best conclude from that article that no 'Man' should become a Physician  Yay for Women Physicians!!!  |

If eggs kill you, I'll be dead before I turn 35.  I think I've probably eaten more eggs than the rest of this board's members, combined.

Oh well, I've lived a good life. In the meantime, I have to look into securing a Viking longship for my flaming burial at sea!

My Viking Ship model is 13" long so I'm working on the machine to shrink me down to size and stuff
