                                The latest Dietary Guidelines for Americans no longer place a limit on daily cholesterol intake, a significant change from past advice. This has led to confusion, prompting many to ask, "Does the government say not to eat eggs?" The answer reflects modern nutritional science, emphasizing overall diet quality rather than restricting a single, nutrient-dense food like eggs.
