More infoA weight loss doctor has warned that eggs - often hailed as a diet hero - could be behind unexplained weight gain, bloating and fatigue for thousands of people. “People assume that because eggs are natural and packed with protein, they must be good for everyone,” Prof Joseph said. “What we see in clinic is that people often turn to eggs as a healthy option when trying to lose weight,” Prof Joseph explained. Prof Joseph urges anyone struggling to lose weight despite a “clean” diet to get properly checked. “It’s not about cutting eggs out for everyone,” Prof Joseph added.
