But tbh with you, why does most mothers think that eggs are bad for us? I would say that it is because they are being fooled by the current food marketing gimmick where low fat product = good product, cholesterol = bad. Both of these mindset are totally wrong yet majority of people believed in it. So the only way to make your mum into believing that eggs aren't that bad is that we need to educate them.
My mum scold me because I like to drink diet coke (my bb nutritionist friend in US drank 2L diet coke each day), saying it is bad for me. So what I did was I check my sugar blood level with all my siblings and guess what, mine was the lowest. We educate them that way, because we know that they are believing something that isn't true.
Now my current diet would consist of 4 whole large eggs (8.5g protein per egg) each day.
Things shouldn't be taken in absolutism. We don't have absolute knowledge on foods and their effects on the body in varying people and environments.
For example, the long term consumption of diet soda may not be safe at all if viewed through different lens from other segments of the health industry.
Example:

Whatever that means (I'm not too sure either), it's just worth it to be prudent in whatever you are consuming and this is where the term moderation is key comes into play.
