A number of studies suggest that about one egg a day has no adverse effect on health outcomes. A study in my lab found that eating two eggs daily for six weeks also had no harmful effects in healthy adults, and we are even seeing similar results in people with high cholesterol.

My cholesterol is normal, so am I okay with this approach?—Denielle Backstrom, Colorado Springs A: I'm not surprised that you find this meal so satisfying. Eggs are a great source of high-quality protein, and the evidence is strong that protein is more filling than carbohydrates or fat. You don't have to worry too much about your heart: Numerous studies show that cholesterol from food sources has little effect on levels in your blood. (It's the saturated and trans fat in food that raises your cholesterol.) Since our early ancestors ate a diet rich in cholesterol from organ meats, eggs, shellfish, and bone marrow, it makes sense that our bodies would have evolved to safely digest high levels. A number of studies suggest that about one egg a day has no adverse effect on health outcomes. A study in my lab found that eating two eggs daily for six weeks also had no harmful effects in healthy adults, and we are even seeing similar results in people with high cholesterol.

When the cremaster muscle contracts (tightens), it pulls the testicle upward toward the body; this is known as the cremasteric reflex. The cremasteric reflex is brought on by such things as cold, touch, and anxiety.
A retractile testicle is a testicle that moves back and forth between the groin and the scrotum (the sac underneath the penis). A retractile testicle is not considered a serious health risk. The condition can affect young boys; most grow out of retractile testicle by puberty.
