Are eggs necessary?
I don't know if I am the only one doing this, but I haven't eaten yolks for a good month or two. Up until a few minutes ago, while reading the posts here, I was perplexed why I had bouts of slight depression and sadness. It could have been a combination of things, such as homesick (which I am not), loneliness, stress from school/work, my skin, etc. Could the minor 'depression' symptoms be from not enough cholesterol? Is there anyway that I could include yolks in my diet as well as raw fish daily? This is all starting to make sense, 2 months ago I was always happy, but now everything sucks. Thanks in advance...
Ok, I used to do that, but I liked fish so much, it got carried away I guess.
There were times where I contemplated suicide. Luckily, I had close friends that cared enough to stop me. It's amazing how much diet effects you emotionally and physically. Hopefully this is all behind me now, I just had 4 yolks in a half-cup of OJ.
BTW, is it bad to laugh a lot after eating yolks/fish? Is it like exercise?

No, laughing is okay!
How much egg yolk you need is individually very different as the cholesterol uptake percentage is individually very different.
So, it is up to your experimentation to find out how much you need to feel perfectly happy. You best start as nick advised, and once you feel perfectly happy, you can start experimenting.

I think it is important to point out that unless you are very wealthy, consuming egg yolks is a necessity. The amount of raw fish you have to consume would cost a lot of money - probably several hundred dollars a month, whereas good quality organic egg yolks can be had for perhaps $100 or less a month.rafaelo wrote:i do fine without yolks.
I consume a dozen a day, which works out to about $60 a month.
While it is technically possible to follow this diet without consuming egg yolks, daily consumption of some animal food is strongly encouraged. Do whatever you want, but egg yolks really are the best bet unless you have a private salmon farm or work on a fishing boat.
