> Eggs are readily available and a low-cost option to obtain protein and nutrients linked to health in other studies.

Not sure that's the case anymore. Maybe it's just in Colorado (due to a new cage-free requirement going into effect in January) but the shelves are empty except for some cage free ones for $10 a dozen.

"In our cohort of healthy, community-dwelling older adults, egg consumption had no effect on baseline memory performance. However, the amount of egg consumption did moderate the rate of age-related decline in memory performance over time." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8477346/
