The site (http://www.cholesterol-and-health.com/Egg_Yolk.html) may say to make your own decision, but it is about as hardcore pro-yolk as you can be; that's the whole point of it. By "dumb" I mean something like "ironically counter-productive" since it is using extra effort/money (thrown out food) done specifically for health reasons. (One time I witnessed a guy I know buying eggs infused with Omega 3s (which cost extra), but then throw out the yolk (the part with the O3s))! You may have other sources of fat in your eating, but the egg yolk is one of the most nutritious things on earth, so its hard to imagine a much better way to get the stuff. And there is almost no worry of getting too much good fat, even if you are getting 85% of your calories that way. The yolk has a truly amazing vitamin profile along with the DHA (Omega 3) and AA without the EPA, along with protein.
