~SC~
always cook my eggs too
ill repost this from what i wrote in the other thread......
Albumen in the urine is a general sign, as studies show that a significantly higher amount of malabsorbed protein (egg) was found in the urine of healthy individuals (1). Stable isotope techniques are used to determine the digestibility of raw eggs vs. cooked eggs. In another study, using this method, it was demonstrated that the assimilation of cooked egg protein is efficient, albeit incomplete, and that the true ileal digestibility of egg protein is significantly enhanced by heat-pretreatment (2). Heat-pretreatment of course being cooked.
Not to mention you have a 1 in 30,000 chance to get salmonella from a raw egg. Also, if you blend raw eggs or whatever, you can break up the chemical bonds of amino acids where as cooking them can hook the bonds together, which inevitably is the objective.

the odds of getting salmonella might not be high but bro cook em anyway cause you dont want to get that!!
after a few days of raw eggs ull be amazed how good microwaed eggs taste(making them at night)
Raw eggs are the perfect food... but thats just my .02

is it just me or does the guy on that site not make any sense? he says you need to cook egg whites because of the avidin in them...but then he says dont cook the egg whites because you lose a lot of protein. and i quote....Quote:

The problem is that it also completely deactivates nearly every other protein in the egg white. While you will still obtain nutritional benefits from consuming cooked egg whites, from a nutritional perspective it would seem far better to consume them uncooked."

Correct me if I am just dead wrong but isnt avidin in a raw egg white what makes the protein less digestible?
