Hi,

I'm just wondering if it ok to eat 2 eggs everyday in omlette or fried form while on the CKD diet. This is what I usually derive my protein from in the morning. However, I am starting to worry about cholesterol.

Could someone please provide some info.

TIA
 
Supplement with fiber and vitamin C. You will not have to worry about cholesterol. Some case studies show that cholesterol levels will go down on a ketogenic diet (Atkins) anyway.

Fiber will bind with the bile acids and free cholesterol in the system and remove it with the stool. The extra antioxidants (vit C, 2-3grams / day) will protect your arteries from damage and plaque (cholesterol) buildup due to a lack of antioxidants (namly vit C).
 
Cholesterol intake has little if any effect on blood cholesterol levels. There's "good" cholesterol and "bad" cholesterol, eggs are primarily "good" cholesterol which can actually lower your blood cholesterol. Just watch your saturated fat intake and you should be fine.
