What we recommend is that people consume daily the amount of cholesterol that is roughly in one egg yolk. So you can get cholesterol from other animal products. And so you would have to adjust the egg intake to try to stay within the guidelines of about the amount of cholesterol in one egg yolk, which is about 200 to 250 milligrams of cholesterol.
I just cut and paste this from a website. Additionally, I keep reading that 6 eggs a week is recomended at most from billboards to magazine articles and such.

Did you you mean to say "Just because you do not see the adverse effects right now, does not means that your arteries and veins are not slowly hardening."?

An egg has about 213 mg of cholesterol and the American Heart Association's recommended max is 300 mg/day, so a person without diabetes or cardiac issues can eat an egg / day if he/she limits his/her cholesterol from other sources, as Tic stated. I have never heard of any reputable nutritionist or physician recommending eating "dozens" of eggs per day. I would be interested in your literature.
