Cardiovascular diseases (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), and cancer are a significant public health burden in the Nordic and Baltic countries. High intake of eggs, mainly due to its high cholesterol content, has been suggested to have adverse health ...

Cardiovascular diseases
A meta-analysis of 41 prospective cohort studies observed that higher egg intake was associated with a higher risk of total CVD
the association was found mainly in the studies conducted in the USA (RR = 1.08, 95% CI 1.02–1.14),
but not in the studies conducted in
Europe (RR = 1.05, 95% CI 0.98–1.14) or in
Asia (RR = 0.96, 95% CI 0.87–1.06).
No statistically significant associations have been observed with fatal CVD (
9,
12,
13) or fatal CHD (
8,
12).
Stroke
Regarding the incidence of any stroke, a meta-analysis of 16 prospective cohort studies did not find an overall association with stroke risk
When comparing extreme categories of intake, an inverse association was observed in studies conducted in Asia (
n = 5, RR = 0.83, 95% CI 0.73–0.94)
but not in studies from Europe.
Heart failure
A meta-analysis of four prospective cohort studies found that compared to no egg consumption, ≥7 eggs/week was associated with an increased risk of heart failure (RR = 1.15, 95% CI 1.02–1.30),
but the association was found in the only study conducted in the USA (RR = 1.32, 95% CI 1.11–1.58 for one egg/day higher intake),
not in the three European studies (RR = 1.08, 95% CI 0.88–1.32) (
12). The strength of evidence is regarded as
Limited – no conclusion.
Type 2 diabetes
The most recent meta-analysis with 16 prospective cohort studies did not find a statistically significant association between egg intake and risk of T2D (RR = 1.07, 95% CI 0.99–1.15 for each one egg/day increase in intake) (
15). When the analyses were stratified by study location,
egg intake was associated with a higher risk in the US studies (
n = 8, RR = 1.19, 95% CI 1.10–1.27),
but no association was found in the studies conducted in Europe (
n = 8, RR = 0.99, 95% CI 0.85–1.15) or in Asia (
n = 2, RR = 0.82, 95% CI 0.62–1.09) (
15). In summary, the strength of evidence is regarded as
Limited – suggestive that egg intake is not associated with increased risk of T2D in European populations.
Cancer mortality
A meta-analysis with 13 prospective cohort studies found that higher egg intake was associated with higher risk of cancer death (RR = 1.20, 95% CI 1.04–1.39 for highest vs. lowest category) (
9). When stratified by geographic location, the
increased risk was found in the US studies (
n = 4, RR = 1.33, 95% CI 1.11–1.60),
but not in European studies (
n = 3, RR = 1.10, 95% CI 0.84–1.41)
or in studies from
Asia.
