Scientists have found that regular consumption of chicken eggs significantly increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

It has been learned that researchers have found that regular egg consumption significantly increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Research on the topic, British Journal of NutritionPosted in.

Experts from China Medical University, along with their colleagues from the University of South Australia and the University of Qatar, looked at nutrition data for 8,545 people between 1991 and 2009.

It turns out that adding more than 38 grams of eggs to meals per day increases the risk of diabetes by about 25 percent. Those who ate more than 50 grams (the equivalent of one egg) per day had a 60% higher risk of getting sick. Furthermore, it was found that this indicator was higher in women than in men.

According to the scientists, the results showed that the risk of diabetes increases in direct proportion to the increase in egg consumption, but the mechanism of action of this food on the body must be clearly determined in the future.
