D. lack fiber

is it B?? thanks

Right again! :-)

yes it is B

However there has been a recent, this past month, study that having two eggs a day is condusive to better health overall, including fewer heart attacks, lower cholesterol, etc.

Yes, you are correct. The main reason why you should reduce your intake of eggs is because egg yolks are high in cholesterol. To come to this conclusion, you can analyze the nutritional content of the egg yolks. Egg yolks do not lack carbohydrates (option A) as they contain a small amount of carbohydrates. While egg yolks are high in protein (option C), it is not the main reason for reducing intake. Similarly, egg yolks do not lack fiber (option D) as they actually contain a small amount of fiber. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as egg yolks have a high cholesterol content and reducing their intake can help improve overall heart health.
