My Swedish "paleo-guru" Staffan Lindeberg (who also is a bit on the conservative side) says 2 eggs a day are OK, so I try to keep that as an average. There ARE some reasons for not overeating on eggs, but if you worry about cholesterol, that's not one of them: Uffe Ravnskov (swe-danish MD) did a test, where his cholestrol levels actually went down as his egg consumption went up from 1 to 8 a day. It's not an atypical reaction... and you could always uncure your bacon. Buy Ray Audette's "Neanderthin" and find out! It's way better than Cordain's book.

Well, this book "The Paleo Diet" says to only eat 6 eggs a week &
doesn't allow bacon - too high fat & I guess the bacon is too much
