Egg whites have negligible amount of cholesterol. Yolk does have cholesterol but it also has other good nutrients. 2 whole eggs a day should be okay to consume.
However make sure that your whole days diet is balanced and contains whole grains, fruits, vegetables and pulses.

Hi, Egg yolk is the richest source of cholesterol. 1/ day is allowed. If high cholesterol then avoid yolk or have it just twice a week. Egg whites contains only proteins not fat.

Hello, Egg white dose not contains cholesterol so 2 egg whites can be taken at a time. Egg yolks are rich in cholesterol and other nutrients. So if you are not a patient of high cholesterol levels then you can have 2 egg in a day. But frequency of it I can tell you after knowing your exact diet pattern, proportion of food.
