I don't pay much attention to these statistical surveys since they are not truly scientific. They ask questions in isolation from other mitigating factors.
I am diabetic as well, but do not fear eggs. Indeed, there are good eggs and bad ones, as the saying goes. You can buy eggs that have the good cholesterol in them - the Omega 3 ones, or just go to a local farm where the chickens run around free and buy hem there. Eggs raised in an industrial chicken factory, fed the equivalent of Chicken Chow kibbles and who never see the light of day will have thin shells, pale yolks, and a terrible nutrition profile.
Happily there are many books that are starting to discuss the differences in the industrialized food we get at the supermarket and the real thing that is far healthier for us. Michael Pollan (In Defense of Food, and also The Omnivore's Dilemma) is one good author, Marion Nestle (What to Eat) another. Both are considered part of the healthy foods movement.
My library is able to get most of the books on the subject for me at no cost. Bless them, one of the better uses of my tax dollars.
