Eating boiled eggs in the morning can have positive or neutral effects on vascular health, depending on your diet, health, and intake.
They provide high-quality protein that supports muscle—including the heart—and aid metabolic health. Nutrients like choline regulate homocysteine, vitamin D supports blood vessel function, while selenium and B12 help circulation.
Eggs also promote satiety, aiding weight control and reducing risks of high blood pressure and atherosclerosis. Though one egg has 186 mg cholesterol, research shows minimal impact for most people; the U.S. guidelines no longer limit dietary cholesterol. However, those with diabetes, heart disease, or familial hypercholesterolemia should moderate yolks. Boiled eggs are preferable to fried, avoiding added fats. One per day is generally safe within a balanced diet.
