Raw eggs...

[itbestuk]

I have been advised by a fitness instructor in my gym to eat raw eggs, I eat lot of eggs currently but I was looking for a more convenient and quicker way to consume my eggs in the morning rather than making scrambled egg, he has advise blend the eggs with some nesquiks powder, its supposed to taste great!

Is it safe to eat raw eggs and are there any health risks such as salmonella?

I would take them just cause of the taste, I must confess when the movie Rocky came I tried it though..

Isn't hardboiling them and eating the whites the best for you?

He must be going to www.mercola.com, Dr. mercola is an advocate of eating raw eggs.

Eggs chemical structure is damaged when cooked or scrambled. The best way to use eggs is in raw form.. **BUT** now days with the way they treat the chickens with antibiotics, pesticides and almost no movement at all many gens get sick and infect the eggs with salmonella the only way to take eggs that way is using from an organic farm.

I took raw organic eggs for 2 days and never got sick or any sides and stoped using them because of the damn taste, its gross man.

Don't listen to Mercola - he is a quack.

Raw eggs are not going to be doing anything for you except giving you a really poor source of protein and giving you a bad case of biotin deficiency! If you simply do a seach on raw eggs you will see there has been numerous conversations about this in the past..

Don't eat raw eggs!
a:There is something in raw eggs,it can block protein(in egg) be digested.
b:Raw eggs can block you assimilating another nutrition(becaus of some antibiotics in row eggs) .
c:Currently,there is some germ in row eggs and the taste of row eggs is terrible.
