Summary

This study tests whether eating 3 whole eggs every day for 4 weeks can improve metabolic health and choline levels in adults with obesity. Twenty participants aged 30-65 with a BMI over 30 will eat the eggs while continuing their normal lifestyle. Researchers will measure liver health, blood markers, and body measurements to see if this simple dietary change has benefits.
