EGG lovers rejoice - it is time to start boiling and poaching again without the fear of cholesterol and heart disease.
But there is no need to heap your plate with fried foods - and be sure to keep the bacon to a minimum - according to cardiologist Associate Professor Karam Kostner.
Dr Kostner said many people avoid eggs due to the cholesterol they contain, but new research has found people can safely eat up to six eggs a week.
"In the setting of a normal, healthy diet eggs don't play a big role in increasing cardiovascular disease and stroke," Dr Kostner said.
"While eggs do contain some cholesterol, the body is very clever at reducing cholesterol production when it gets more ... from products like eggs, milk and cheese."
But Dr Kostner warned against over-indulging or adding fatty foods like bacon to eggs.
And he also said eggs were not for everyone.
"In diabetics, research has always indicated that a higher intake of dietary cholesterol ... may actually increase your cardiovascular risk."
