EGGS and MEAT don’t cause any disease.
Unlearn and eat as much as you can…
Here is what eggs actually do for your hormones that nobody in Nigeria is teaching you:
The yolk, the part your aunty told you to throw away because of “cholesterol”, is where almost all the nutritional gold lives.
Choline. Your liver needs it to clear excess oestrogen.
Selenium. Your thyroid needs it to make the active hormone.
Cholesterol itself. Your body uses it as the raw material to build testosterone, oestrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and vitamin D.
Yes, cholesterol.
The thing you were told to fear is the same thing your hormones are made from.
Women dealing with hormonal chaos like PCOS, irregular cycles, painful periods, and mood swings are often missing the very building blocks eggs provide.
Men with low energy, poor recovery, and dropping libido are missing the same thing from a different angle.
Two to four eggs a day is not dangerous.
It is foundational.
The cholesterol fear from the 1970s came from poor research that was later discredited, but the belief never left people’s minds.
That is why many are still avoiding one of the most powerful and affordable hormone-supporting foods.
Buy real eggs.
Local if you can. The ones from the woman raising chickens behind her house are often better than supermarket options.
Boil them.
Fry them in palm oil or butter, not vegetable oil.
Eat the yolk.
Eat it consistently.
The hormones you are trying to fix with expensive supplements are sitting inside a ₦300 egg.
Are eggs the only source of protein?
No.
But they are one of the cheapest and most accessible sources of high-quality protein you can buy. Think of them as an investment in your body.
If you can afford it, aim for 5 to 6 eggs daily.
Eggs can help raise your HDL (good) cholesterol. They also contain nutrients like lutein and zeaxanthin, which may help slow down macular degeneration and support eye health. On top of that, they contribute to healthy skin and overall body function.
You really cannot go wrong by increasing your intake of high-quality protein each day.
And remember, eggs are not your only option. You can also get excellent protein from beef, chicken, turkey, salmon, other fish, oysters, and other animal products.
FROM AGE 40
Don’t avoid eggs, fat, and meat.
Eat them till you’re satisfied.
What you should do is:
Minimize carbs.
Avoid bread and its derivatives.
Restrict your eating window.
At least 16–18 hours of fasting daily.
Avoid simple sugars, sugary fruits, fruit juices, and carbonated drinks.
Avoid seed oils with everything you have.
Targeted supplementation.
(FAFORON SALUD AND SPIDEX19 daily) Ditoz 3days monthly. Change your toothpaste to Faforlife organic toothpaste
Take walks.
At least 8–10k steps daily.
Eggs shouldn’t be limited; eat as much as you want.
They’re self-limiting — you can’t overeat them; same with meat.
If you can afford to eat ten a day, please do.
One large egg contains about 6g of protein.
That’s 60g of protein, and you need about 150g to meet optimal daily intake.
Proteins are irreplaceable.
You can boil them, fry with tallow, olive, or coconut oil, scramble them, make omelets, or even egg soup.
Eat them whole, with the yolk — it’s a complete nutrition package.
Don’t be deceived.
LASTLY,
*If eggs make you fart a lot, there is a problem in your gut. Fix it urgently by changing your toothpaste to Faforlife organic toothpaste, Ditoz, Faforon, Salud and Spidex19.
Eggs don’t make one fart no matter the amount they eat.
Beans does, Why?
Because beans are plant and contain some anti-nutrients that are not friendly to the guts.
Do I still eat beans?
Yes, but not frequently.
FACT:
Eggs do not cause high cholesterol. Your liver does.
Your body produces 80% of its own cholesterol.
The liver manufactures it every single day because your body needs it.
Cholesterol builds cell membranes.
It produces hormones.
It creates vitamin D.
It makes bile acids that digest your food. Without cholesterol, you die.
The 20% that comes from food? Your body adjusts.
When you eat more cholesterol, your liver produces less.
When you eat less, your liver produces more.
It self-regulates.
The idea that eating eggs raises your blood cholesterol came from a study in the 1960s that has been debunked for over two decades.
But the lie stuck.
And now entire generations of Nigerians are afraid of one of the most nutrient-dense, affordable foods available.
One egg contains B12.
Folate. Choline. Selenium.Vitamin A.
Vitamin D. And complete protein. For less than 300 naira.
Your doctor told you to stop eating eggs.
Meanwhile, your fasting sugar is 7.2 and nobody asks about the bread and malt you have every morning.
The egg was never the problem.

Google is asking for permission to release millions of sterilized mosquitoes in order to fight their disease-spreading counterparts
Through its parent company, Alphabet, Google wants U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approval to release up to 32 million mosquitoes in California and Florida. That might sound apocalyptic, but the request is part of the tech giant’s Debug program to eliminate disease-carrying mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes are the world’s deadliest animal. They spread malaria, dengue fever, West Nile virus and other fatal diseases to millions of people each year. The Debug project wants to tackle this issue by releasing male mosquitoes—which don’t bite or carry disease—to stop these “bad mosquitoes,” like Aedes aegypti.
The “good” bugs will be infected with a naturally occurring bacteria called Wolbachia, which will make them sterile. When one of these males tries to mate with a “bad” female, the eggs won’t hatch. “Over time, there will be fewer and fewer bad mosquitoes,” per the program’s website.
This approach isn’t unique—it’s a known method called the sterile insect technique, and has been used in the United States for more than 60 years.
According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, it’s an environmentally friendly insect pest control method that has been successful in controlling pests like fruit flies, screwworms and moths.
“It’s really a genius technique that has been used to completely eradicate or reduce numbers of serious pests and vectors,” says Chris Grinter, an entomologist at the California Academy of Sciences, to Matthew Brown at SFGate.
Did you know? Mosquitoes have been biting humans for more than one million years
A study published in the journal Scientific Reports in February 2026 found that the Anopheles leucosphyrus group of mosquitoes, in Southeast Asia, evolved a taste for human blood between 1.6 million and 2.9 million years ago, which is much earlier than previously thought.
It’s also not Debug’s first attempt at this. Verily, formerly an Alphabet subsidiary and an early driver behind the project, released millions of sterilized males in California in 2017. The project is also seeing success in Singapore, where it has supported the National Environment Agency’s Project Wolbachia since 2018. In a May 2026 blog post, Debug says Project Wolbachia has “achieved 80-90 percent suppression” of the Aedes aegypti mosquito population and “more than 70 percent reduction in dengue incidents after 6 to 12 months of releases.”
Aedes aegypti, the mosquito targeted by the program, is not native to California or Florida, so no animals rely on it for food. “If Google began to target native mosquito species, then I would be concerned with cascading environmental consequences,” explains Nathan Burkett-Cadena, an ecologist at the University of Florida, to Carla Bleiker at DW.
Still, some experts have raised concerns about the ethical implications of mosquito eradication. “If we were to intentionally set out to cause the extinction of a species, we should think about that,” said Henry Greely, a Stanford law professor and bioethicist, to Jerry Adler at Smithsonian in 2016. “I would want there to be some consideration and reflection, and a social consensus, before we take that step.”
Others, however, believe humans have a responsibility to control their numbers. “The thing is, Aedes aegypti is a species that we have caused to spread,” says Matthew DeGennaro, a neurogeneticist at Florida International University, to DW. “They have followed us around the world. They’re like the cockroaches or rats of the mosquito world. If the climate is right and humans are there, you’ll find Aedes aegypti. So we have an obligation to control them.”
Google’s timeline for the release of the mosquitoes is still unclear. A notice from the federal register shows that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is reviewing the company’s request and accepting public comments until June 5.

The Benue State Government has flagged off the May–June 2026 Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health (MNCH) Week, just as it has reaffirmed its commitment to improving maternal and child health outcomes across the state.
It also stated that the initiative aligns with the healthcare transformation agenda and the vision of the state governor, Rev Fr Hyacinth Alia, whose administration has consistently prioritized the strengthening of primary healthcare systems, improved access to quality healthcare services, and the reduction of preventable maternal and child deaths across the state.
Performing the flag-off ceremony at the Family Support Programme, FSP, clinic, Makurdi, the State Commissioner for Health and Human Services, Dr Paul Ogwuche, stated that the programme is a critical intervention aimed at improving access to life-saving healthcare services for women and children across the state.
Represented by Dr Cephas Hough, Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Dr Ogwuche, noted that the activity which runs for a whole week, is designed to deliver integrated health services to mothers, newborns, and children, particularly those in underserved and hard-to-reach communities.
He emphasized that maternal and child health remains a key indicator of societal development and called for sustained collective action to address preventable deaths resulting from pregnancy-related complications and childhood illnesses.
According to him, “Every mother deserves quality healthcare before, during, and after childbirth, while every child deserves the opportunity to survive, grow, and reach their full potential.
“This MNCH week provides an opportunity to intensify interventions that will safeguard the lives of mothers and children throughout Benue state.”
He informed that during the exercise, pregnant women would receive focused antenatal care services, micronutrient supplementation, health education, and counseling, while children would benefit from routine immunization, Vitamin A supplementation, deworming, nutrition screening, and other essential child survival interventions.
Other services to be provided during the week include HIV testing and counseling, distribution of Long-Lasting Insecticide-Treated Nets (LLINs), birth registration services, newborn care interventions, family planning counseling, malaria prevention education, and promotion of proper hygiene practices.
The Commissioner urged mothers, fathers, caregivers, and community leaders to actively participate in the programme and encourage community members to take advantage of the free health services being offered throughout the exercise.
Dr Ogwuche further acknowledged development partners and donor agencies, for their continued support to the health sector and called for stronger collaboration to expand healthcare coverage and improve health outcomes for vulnerable populations.
While Dr Ogwuche, called on stakeholders to work collectively towards reducing preventable maternal and child deaths, he reiterated the commitment of the ministry to sustaining interventions that improve maternal, newborn, and child health outcomes.
The programme brought together officials of the Benue State Primary Health Care Board, development partners, healthcare professionals, traditional and religious leaders, community representatives, mothers, caregivers, and other stakeholders in the health sector.

The House of Representatives has urged the executive to provide the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) with adequate releases as contained in the budget to enable it contain ebola and other diseases.
The House made the appeal after adopting a motion of urgent national importance sponsored by Hon. Amobi Ogah (NDC, Imo).
In adopting the motion, the House also urged the Port Health Authorities to intensify cross-border surveillance and checks to prevent infiltration of infected persons.
While presenting the motion, Ogah disclosed that on 15th May 2026, the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) reported an outbreak of Ebola
disease in the Ituri Province of the Democratic Republic of Congo (just two steps
from Nigeria).
He said this rare and distinct strain of Ebola virus, the Bundibugyo Strain, is causing a major public health emergency in Central Africa and may spread to other parts of Africa soon because of the porous nature of our borders and lack of strict cross-border checks.
He expressed concerns that this version of the virus currently does not have any licensed vaccines or targeted medical therapies to mitigate it.
“The House should equally note that, on 25th May 2026, the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) placed Nigeria at high risk of Ebola importation.
“In the public health advisory issued by the Director General of NCDC, Dr. Jide Idris, ironically stated that the NCDC is intensifying national coordination activities to
strengthen Ebola preparedness and rapid response capacity across the country, and
that the National Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) is on alert mode for emergency preparedness.
“However, it is known that the NCDC received no operational funding in 2025, with no capital releases made to date against the approved 2026 allocation.
“Furthermore, the overhead releases are highly epileptic and grossly inadequate, which is in direct violation of basic international standards and constitutes an abuse of the
Appropriations Acts. How then can the preparedness of the Centre for emergencies
be guaranteed?
“It is worrisome to note that, due to lack of adequate funding, coupled with uncertainty regarding the quantum that will be released this year, the capacity to
fulfill critical health security obligations has significantly weakened.
“We should also bear in mind that this situation is compounded by a marked reduction in external donor support, which previously complemented government financing for outbreak preparedness and response activities.
It is essential to note that, presently, the Centre is experiencing critical challenges, including but not limited to the following: Vendors have not been paid for critical goods and services for over one year.
“If urgent, appropriate funding for the Centre is not immediately met, the strength
and capacity of the NCDC to adequately respond to the resurfacing Ebola threat
and other epidemic-prone diseases cannot be assured, which is extremely
disastrous to Nigeria as a nation”.
