Dear Morgy,
He says to eat 90% of your calories from plant sources -- which prob means no more than a few eggs a week --- I'm not a mathematcian

But eggs are a great source of protein so if you like them, eat them and accommodate them into the diet.

Good luck.
I'll let you know.

M.

Both my tdoc and my accupunturist want me on the plant based diet.
I think that the tdoc pretty much eats like this.

The premier usefulness of eggs is the CHOLINE. They remain the highest source of choline in our diets (liver used to be the highest--but no one eats liver anymore). Also many eggs today are Omega-3 enhanced and provide DHA for the brain.
Choline is basically used to make acetylcholine and phosphotidylserine for our brain cell membranes.
