Nutrition Facts:  Conventional mayo is an emulsion made of egg yolks and oil.  Eggs are the number one source of cholesterol in the western diet.  A meta-analysis in the journal Atherosclerosis found that there is a dose-responsive positive association between egg consumption and the risk of both cardiovascular disease and diabetes.  Less than just one egg per day was found to increase risk of heart disease.

On the other hand, this low-fat mayo is made of rich, creamy silken tofu, which has been found to lower cholesterol and has a beneficial effect on coronary risk factors.
