    I've only done supplemental protein via whole egg (powder) for years. My sons eat 4-6 raw eggs (blended) each day.

  2. I don't have it in the morning either. I prefer a hard-boiled egg as an afternoon snack with a couple of tablespoons of beans, my small homemade trail mix of walnuts, roasted pumpkin seeds and raisins, and an apple. Hits the spot.

  3. What's your take on the TMAO thing, as it relates to egg as well as some other foods?

  4. I used to supplement with egg white powder for some years before whey became big. The gas gave me quite a kill radius. I was ahead of my time on social distancing.

  5. The lobby for the egg industry is VERY POWERFUL. Eggs are good if you like to eat baby chicken placentas.

  6. Just curious, did your cardiologist place an upper limit on your egg consumption?

    I did a food sensitivity test a couple of months ago, and guess what was my in my top 3? Egg whites.

    Go figure. I haven't had a single egg since then.

  8. No, but I don't have a problem with high BP or cholesterol. Currently I'm eating about 8 per week. I would think more than 3 daily wouldn't be the best for long term heart health.

  9. Did you have any reaction to eggs when you ate them? I ask because you seem surprised by the results of the allergy test.

    It depends on how much I had. If was just an egg on a sandwich or something like that, I can't say I really noticed anything crazy. But when I went through periodic phases where I was eating egg white omelets every day, I noticed that my stomach did not like that at all. And the longer I did it, the worse I felt.
