not more than 1 yolk, as it contains approximately 230mg of cholesterol.According to the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, your daily intake of cholesterol should be no more than 300 mg, and no more than 200 mg if you're considered at high risk for heart disease.

Yes its true it is high in fat but still it is good for health. But as you r telling you r having 15of them means you r taking more of fat than needed. Even healthy food more than proportion is nt good .so count your diet plan properly or else try to avoid yellow part.

It's not that you are not supposed to eat egg yolk. It has got good nutrients in it. The amount of yolk you consume per day matters becoz its a concentrated source of energy. Any extra calories is stored as fat in the body. So,if you are eating 2 to 3 whole eggs without any additional processed foods or meat, then this might not cause you any harm.
