The yolks are a little fatty but restricting yourself to just one a day while eating the whites from the other eggs would be a great idea! As always, don't worry too much about the cholesterol from a single yolk - food cholesterol has a much smaller impact on your body's cholesterol level than widely thought. Good Luck! -FM. Hi Rachel,

How about hard bolied eggs? They're a good source of protein and the article I followed your link (12)to suggests the lutein in them is important too. I buy the Eggland's Best ones because they have the nutrients but have 25% less saturated fat than regular eggs. I like your ideas for healthy snacks to prepare in advance and keep around.
