Oyster Omeletter

The popular oyster omelette is higher in fat than a standard omelette. Don’t forget the number of egg yolks and the amount of oil that goes into preparing the dish! Most types of shellfish, including oysters, also contain cholesterol. But here’s the good news: Oysters are also a source of protein and zinc, so indulging in this shellfish once or twice a month and in proper portions will not be enough to cause a significant increase in your body’s store of cholesterol. However, one oyster omelette contains many oysters, which means that eating them all in one go will trigger an increase in your body’s level of blood cholesterol, which can cause a blockage in the veins and arteries that control blood flow to and from your heart, increasing your risk for coronary artery disease.
