Just looked it up and ,holy shit, there is a link between eggs and prostate cancer. And full fat dairy apparently. https://www.pcf.org/c/prostate-cancer-and-eggs-dairy-supplements-your-questions-answered-part-1/

The sad part is that it's mostly in the yolks, which is my main reason for eating them. Research suggests 2 a week or less, so I try to stick to that guideline to stay on the safe side. If it hadn't impacted my grandfather I probably would have never known about the link.

The yolks are the best part! I was gonna make some deviled eggs but now I can't. Gonna maybe stick with 1 or 2 a week

You probably can. If I were to do it, I'd probably gorge one day on 12 deviled eggs and call it good for a couple weeks, probably minimizes total damage (instead of a continuous exposure every day, similar to how professional eaters work.)
