It is outdated thinking that only egg whites should be eaten. Eggs should be eaten with the yolk, I agree 100%.

At 70 what difference does it make? You might as well eat eggs and be happy. At least when your time us up, you won't have any regret.

at your age with diabetes, why are you looking for food supplement, that too from an unnatural,

high fat containing item,

not recommended for diabetes

instead find out and eliminate the cause of your recent loss of weight

egg is an unnatural food for humans,as it is by nature not meant for them.

you have agreed that insulin is needed for fat metabolism, why then do you want to overload the diabetic with high fat.

low carb is meaningful, but high fat has no logic in diabetes who cannot handle even normal fat due to their obvious insulin deficiency.

what blocks the arteries is fat and cholesterol only ,although high carb contributes to it in diabetes

this is a fact and needs no prop ups from further proofs.
