Raw Eggs for your Health

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Many bodybuilders swear by eggs. Although most wouldn't ever think about taking them raw, this study talks about the benefits of taking eggs raw instead of cooked. I prefer mine with a dash of Splenda. (Thanks to Crowler who helped me take them)

"Raw whole eggs are a phenomenally inexpensive and incredible source of high-quality nutrients that many of us are deficient in, especially high-quality protein and fat. Eggs generally are one of the most allergic foods that are eaten, but I believe this is because they are cooked. If one consumes the eggs in their raw state the incidence of egg allergy virtually disappears. Heating the egg protein actually changes its chemical shape, and the distortion can easily lead to allergies."

G4E, have you been eating raw eggs? If so, where do you buy your eggs at? I use to eat raw eggs along with my roomate but then I stopped after he got a horrible case of salmonella poisoning. However, he would buy his eggs in the 50pk from walmart and I bought mine in the 12 pk from the grocery store.
 
I would go with the pasteurized egg whites (egg beaters).

They are pasteurized, so no chance of getting sick...and they are 100% absorbed/digetable. I get them in a 2 cup container for $1.79 each....provides 50g of protein....and is equal to about 12-13 egg whites.

You can even drink them, mixed with juice or whatever. Plus, no egg shells or mess.

Raw eggs are not fully digested...I forget the scientific reasoning...but I've read it from multiple sources.

interesting, I never heard that before BW. Don't know how much egg beaters are around here, but it's worth looking into..
