Guest guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Hey Graham, > OK yes Quail eggs are lower in cholesteral..56 mg. But have to now > compares apples to apples LOL Weight for weight. eggs of one size > to another... Yep .. size is one thing .. and I reckon it has to do with how many one eats. Odds are that one ostrich egg would have a bit more of all the nutrients than a dozen chicken eggs. ;-) > for my figures > Quail eggs weigh 0.3 oz each 56 mg chol compare e.g 1oz = 187 > chicken eggs at 1.3 oz 155 mg compare for 1 oz = 119 > Duck eggs at 2.5 oz 620 mg compare for 1 oz = 248 > Goose eggs at 5.1 oz 1225 mg compare for 1 oz = 240 > > numbers of course vary depending on actual size of the eggs. .. so > Quail effs have more cholestral than chicken eggs.. > interesting I just checked it out .. and if one eats four quail eggs then they are getting roughly 300 mg of Cholesterol .. and if eating one chicken egg they are getting 213 mg .. so right you are. The nutritional value for all the eggs are here. http://www.hormel.com/templates/knowledge/knowledge.asp?catitemid=2 & id=182 Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com Light a Candle for the Innocent Victims of Online Child Pornography http://www.lightamillioncandles.com/ > Cholesterol is not the reason I prefer them .. my cholesterol has > never been below 300 in my entire life .. same went for my mother. > She died in mid 80s but not from any illness related to cholesterol. > Both she and I could have eaten grass and still high a high level of > cholesterol because our bodies produced it regardless of what we ate.
