Milk rice with egg is my favourite. I like to have it everyday. Some of my relatives told, eating in that combination(milk rice with egg) is not good for health and it will create some disease. So my mom, nowadays not allowing me to eat like that. Is it true? Can we eat like that?

i have to agree with your relatives. actually milk rice is good, it is not as fattening as compared to regular milk. what is bad is the egg, especially if you take it everyday and if you eat it raw.

I'm assuming here that what they're all worried about is you getting high cholesterol, which can lead to problems down the road. I think it depends more on what your cholesterol levels are. Mine runs normal to on the low side, so my Dr has me eating 2 eggs each day for breakfast and has for many years. There IS heart disease in my family (my Dad and all the relatives on his side of the family.) Personally, I think in moderation it isn't too harmful unless you're family is predisposed to those kinds of health conditions. With me, even though my Father's health predisposes me to have heart and cholesterol problems, I do not fit that worry because mine is on the low side. Outside of that, rice is good for a person, as well as milk. It doesn't seem like an egg a day would cause problems in someone who's young.Next time you have to go to the Dr for yourself, ask him if it's OK for you. Only he would know you and your medical history (as well as your family's)

It is ok to eat such combination as you said. but you shuoldn't eat it everyday. you can arrange it so you can eat your favourite food.

I "Search the Web" (top of every page) for 'combination, milk, eggs' and found http://www.chacha.com/question/are-milk-and-eggs-a-good-combination which said it's an okay combination ... maybe if you only have it once-a-week-or-so, like steak.

That is a good combination except there is not much nutrition i rice,(look it up on nutrition chart). There is a chart on the internet that has the nutritional value of all foods, just do a search.
