3 or 4 eggs a day? 90g beef liver? Sign me up for those pills, Bill.

Like 120 eggs a month, 1400 eggs a years. That is what you envision as the healthier alternative?

I can eat a hard boiled egg on the way to the bathroom.

What’s up with you?

Liver can be pretty good if you spice it up Jamaican style. I regularly make this for people who tell me they don't like liver and they just love it. Pretty easy - Fresh and whole tumeric, ginger, garlic, onions, thyme, oregano, and as much scotch bonnet as you can handle. Soak the liver in brined water or milk for a few hrs and it will draw out a lot of the strong taste as well (French technique). Stew in some water after sautéing the onions to your liking. Same recipe works for stewing heart meat if that's something more to your liking, and it also contains a lot of the same nutrients that a lot of people are lacking in modern westernized diets. Consider what other predators do when they get to their prey: They go straight for the liver and heart.

However if you don't like the idea of trying new things, and just want something in pill form, honestly lecithin or even better citicoline is the way to go in my opinion

    Chicken liver has more iron and selenium in it per Oz than beef liver. Easier to eat a ton and not as harsh tasting. Make some dirty rice or just liver stew!

Ahhh the old "eggs are bad for you" meme. Eggs are demonstrably healthy. Just don't fry them in a gallon of butter and you'll be fine.

    Then demonstrate?

    In 2015, the U.S. Dietary Guidelines shifted from implying that one egg a day is “probably a bit much” to saying “one egg a day is fine if you don’t fry it.” This coincided with the removal of the quantitative cap of 300 mg/day on dietary cholesterol (a single egg basically maxes that out).

    Four eggs a day is almost 1,000 calories of egg, roughly half of many people’s total daily calorie intake.

      What? A jumbo egg is like 70-100 calories.

      Like most things I’m sure you can overdo it. But if you’re choosing between cereal and a bagel or a couple of eggs, I think most would be better off with the eggs.

      Fat and cholesterol don’t hurt you, or make you fat.

      Sitting on ass does.
