Diagram of study design and subject recruitment, enrollment, and completion.Serum lipid responses to egg intake are altered in females based on used of combined oral contraceptives. Intake of an egg-free diet (light blue), egg whites (purple), or whole eggs (dark blue) did not alter serum (Effects of egg intake on serum lipoprotein profiles. Intake of an egg-free diet (light blue), egg whites (purple), or whole eggs (dark blue) on (Effects of egg intake on clinical immune profiles with COC use. Changes (Effects of egg intake on clinical erythrocyte and platelet profiles. Intake of an egg-free diet (light blue), egg whites (purple), or whole eggs (dark blue) on (Correlations between changes in metabolic vs. immune parameters. Heatmap values are Pearson correlation coefficients, where red indicates a positive correlation and green indicates a negative correlation. Asterisks denotes statistically significant correlations (* Nutrient composition of daily egg treatment.Nutrient composition of 3 large whole shelled eggs (whole egg diet) and the equivalent of 3 large egg whites (egg white diet), based on data retrieved from USDA FoodData Central database or Average daily nutrient intake of participants throughout egg diet periods.Data are reported as mean ± standard deviation, n = 26.
