Eat what you like, in moderation. If you eat 20 eggs/week, you'll probably get sick even when you don't have cancer, but 2–4 a week won't hurt you unless you're allergic to them or have already have high cholesterol.
Also note that "plant-based" isn't always good for you. You need to eat lots of simple vegetables, but many heavily-processed "plant-based" foods like Beyond patties are actually worse for you than the meat they're trying to replace. 😢

Very true. Impossible burgers and Beyond patties are basically vegan junk food. The key is for your plant-based eating plan to be focused on whole foods, not processed foods, I believe. Fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, tofu, etc. in their whole forms.

Used to eat two a day at times but now down to say 3 p wk on average. Cholesterol has always been low. As a non-meat eater the B12 is important. Thanks for your reply.
All this now ( temporarily ) conflicted with the discovery of gallstones and the diet that that will advocate when I see the gastro lady on Thursday!
