47. Eggs
Eggs are a nutritious food, but they need to be consumed in moderation. The recommended allowance is two eggs per day. Eating more eggs on a daily basis may increase a person's risk of cancer, although this topic is controversial and the research is limited.
According to some studies, a higher daily intake of eggs may put a person at greater risk of developing colon, rectal and prostate cancers. On the other hand, many studies found that moderate consumption of eggs helps improve heart and eye health.
