You need to make sure Cholesterol is a problem in your family. Dietary Cholesterol has little effect on ones total Cholesterol. Cholesterol levels are determined by your genetics.

it is more of a genetic thing, but if you have the genetics for high cholesterol...eating foods that are high in it isn't smart... in any case, you are right.

very interesting.. ive been told by almost every1 how eggs were bad and to only use eggwhites.. i just throw in 1 or 2 whole eggs with 6 egg whites

basically this can be seen as precautionary for teh most part, there is quite a bit of nutritional value to the yolk especially in regards to folate....that is if your body can afford it...

Arnold says alot of the nutrition in the egg comes from the yolk so eat it unless you are worried about your cholestrol. You seem to be worried so stick with whites only. Arnold is always right.

yeah b vitamins are very good

run:
5-10mg of folic acid
300-600mcg of vitamin B12
300-500mg of vitamin B6
500mg niacin

throw in vitamin c at 5-10 grams aswell
