Eggs might just be the easiest, cheapest and most versatile way to up your protein intake. Beyond easily upping your daily protein count, eggs also boost your health. However, daily consumption of eggs might have negative effects on your body. Here are some of the effects eggs might have on your body when you take them daily.
Allergic reactions are associated with eating eggs. Eating egg can trigger allergic reactions causing symptoms such as rashes.

Your cholesterol profile also increases. We all know that cholesterol is a bad thing. Eggs contain plenty of cholesterol and the concern is centred around the ratio of good cholesterol found in eggs (HDL) to bad cholesterol(LDL). One egg contains 212 mg of cholesterol and too much consumption will increase the amount in your body.
Deficiency of biotin, also known as Vitamin H or Vitamin B7, is responsible for skin conditions such as cradle cap, lack of muscle tone, muscle pain and cramps. This condition is mainly linked to eating egg whites. Avidin found in egg whites rubs off biotin from the body, increasing the risk of biotin deficiency.
