Saturated fat

I eat the whole egg for the amino acid spectrum. Per yolk, there is only 1.5 grams saturated fat out of 4.5 total fat in the vegetarian fed eggs I use. From my view you can have quite a few whole eggs realizing that 2/3 of the fat is unsaturated. And clearly, some saturated fat is needed in the diet. Labelling all saturated fat as bad is inaccurate.

agreed...to a point. b/c for me, i usually have 6 + eggs a day, which would lead ot a good amount of saturated fats (even having said that only 1.2-2grams are saturated. im getting a lot of lean towards eating the whole egg and sounds good. I'll change it up a bit, having an even ratio of whole eggs to whites.

for anyone trying to get rid of the pain of cooking eggs -

for the longest time i could not eat raw eggs, but someone passed a good way to getting them down, so idecided that i try it, and to my surprise, it was fine, i had no problems

take 4 - 6 eggs, 1 scoop strawberry protein powder, and the rest milk in a large glass, shake, blend, stir, and chug !

it tastes good actually.... and you get a really good amino acid profile from the mixture. If anyone have any other good egg recipes, post them, coz i think we can all use some novel ways of consuming more eggs!

I eat 3 a day for breakfast, albumen protein isnt that appealing to me and while the amino acid profile is great, liver tabs suffice for the lack there of from eggs. Im not a big fan on eating a lot of eggs, not so much the effect it has on the HDL/LDL ratio, just the inconvience and (to me) the petty nutrional profile.

I eat a little of the yolk with the whites, just to make them more palatable, but I throw away most of it, or give it to my cats.

 

And then I go drink eggnog

this my favorite way to eat eggs:

4 eggs (2 whole and 2 whites) cooked (scrambled or omellete style). put that between 2 toasted wheat bread (with smart balance or cant believe its not butter melted on the toast, spread with peanut butter and a packet of equal/spendla sprinkled on top. If you aint a big of sweetners, than cook your eggs with a slice of F.F. american cheese. Seriously, i put PB on everything.

LG, cleaning the raw egg spattered all over my kitchen would be too much cardio.  But that does bring to mind a question: I think I remember reading somewhere that something about the egg protein changes when you cook it.  I almost think it was supposed to get better, even though I'd instinctively assume it'd get worse. Anyone know?
