There is 185 milligrams of cholesterol in one egg; daily-recommended cholesterol limit is 300 milligrams. So if you are in the normal range of LDL cholesterol, eggs should be no problem as long as you reduce other sources of cholesterol (ask your doctor). It may also depend on the kind of eggs one consumes; there are more omegas 3 in organic eggs.
In this study one egg a day does not increase chances of cardiovascular disease. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez...Pubmed_RVDocSum
A good article reevaluating the risk of eating eggs http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/7301/title/Reevaluating_Eggs_Cholesterol_Risks
So the question one maybe asking is, is there a correlation between high cholesterol and coronary heart disease? Some countries with the lowest levels of cholesterol have the highest levels of coronary heart disease according to the MONICA study. http://www.thincs.org/Malcolm2.htm#sep16-2004
