Can I eat eggs if I have had a myocardial infarction?
Myocardial infarction is a very serious type of coronary heart disease. An important pathological basis of coronary heart disease is the formation of atherosclerotic plaques in the arteries, which eventually rupture, leading to thrombosis that blocks the coronary arteries and causes myocardial infarction. Therefore, arteriosclerosis and hyperlipidemia are its pathological bases, and eggs contain a high amount of cholesterol. Hence, one should not consume eggs in excess. Eating one egg per day should still be acceptable, but consuming a large number of eggs can lead to increased blood lipids, which is harmful for the treatment and prevention of coronary heart disease. It is important to control the amount of eggs consumed, which should not exceed one per day.
