Are eggs a natural superfood? Some say yes, but others say the breakfast and cooking favorite could even send you to an early grave.   Explore the science of eggs with New York Times bestselling author and nutrition expert Dr. Neal Barnard as he joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.   You will hear what happened to one listener who ate a dozen eggs a day for year that left doctors puzzled and scrambling for answers.   Other Topics: - Are organic free-range eggs a healthier option? - Does the body produce enough cholesterol on its own? - Are eggs unhealthy for someone with diabetes? - Are eggs less healthy than bacon? - Egg substitutes - And more!   Plus, we’ll unveil a new segment called “The Power Foods Focus” ahead of the release of Dr. Barnard’s new book, The Power Foods Diet. This week we’re exploring the protein in potatoes and comparing it to eggs!   This episode of The Exam Room™ Podcast is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg’s passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation.   — — THE POWER FOODS DIET — — Pre-order the book: https://amzn.to/3GmCxUj   — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — Benefits - Exclusive early access to select interviews - Pre-sale opportunities for live event tickets - Exclusive live online events VIP sign up: https://www.pcrm.org/examroomvip  — — SHOW LINKS — — Gregory J.
