To take into account:

This is a good biologic energy input for sports people, or those people who would like to taste this product and find themselves limited by fear that their cholesterol might increase.

As regards chicken eggs: if they are soft-boiled, cholesterol won't increase, since they contain a lipoprotein that functions as protection. On the other hand, when the egg is hard-boiled this lipoprotein is reduced and cholesterol increases
