The source video asks how many egg yolks someone can eat and whether eating more raises cholesterol, including in the context of keto. This article does not set one daily egg limit for everyone. It considers the overall eating pattern, saturated fat and individual health risks.
One food does not determine everyone’s LDL
Any answer about egg yolks depends on the whole diet, LDL result, health status and personal risk. Focusing on a single food can overlook other sources of saturated fat, such as processed meat, butter or foods regularly made with coconut milk and animal fats.
Assess a keto pattern by the foods eaten
Keto can describe different menus. A pattern high in saturated fat and low in fiber-rich vegetables differs from one that uses more unsaturated fats and a wider range of foods. Do not assume keto raises or lowers LDL in the same way for everyone. If you start a new eating pattern, monitor relevant test results and talk with your care team if you have a medical condition.
Use test results and health goals
The article cites the 2026 dyslipidemia guideline as using an overall risk assessment, rather than an egg count alone, to inform decisions. If your LDL is high or you take cholesterol-lowering medication, speak with your clinician before making major changes to your diet or medicines.
