I have been adding the yolk only to my morning shake. I was surprised to hear the whites are good for you. I thought they were useless sticky goo. I have never eaten whole eggs with my shake but I am going to try it soon. I am surprised that body builders are so worried about fat. Don’t you need fat for a healthy body? I thought fat is necessary for the brain.

P.S. I have a good egg supplier and I have no cholesterol problems.

O.K. here is my take on this…The writer of this article is not stating that eating egg whites is better than eating the whole egg from a nutrition stand point, if the fact was we had only eggs to eat in our diet, then eating the whole egg would be correct, but like most people I eat other meals during the day that include other important nutrients that fill in the gaps of your precious yokes..You people are just being contrary.. There is nothing wrong with eating an egg white as an alternative or substitute for protein.
In an effort to reduce my fat intake I will eat an egg white omelet with some spinach for my breakfast…For lunch I may have a turkey sandwich, now are you people gonna bash me because I don’t put the mayonnaise on my sandwich.

Based on this article I wouldn’t trust anything written on this site. This article is just plain false. The most beneficial and nutrient dense part of an egg is the yolk…if you take out the yolk it’s like drinking fruit juice instead of eating the whole fruit which is much healthier.

The cholesterol in eggs is HDL which is a cholesterol your body needs and actually helps regulate the bad cholesterol (LDL).

Do not just eat egg whites…keep the yolk in there…nature knows what it’s doing. Just make sure you get cage free organic eggs and you can’t go wrong. Whole foods actually has cage free/soy free which was cool to see.

I’ve been doing a lot of research as I’m in kind of a tough program. I’m trying to really pack on muscle and lose a lot of the fat I have. Its tough because you’re balancing the weight and fat needed for true strong muscle building and still be losing all of that unhealthy weight. A lot of pro weight lifters and stuff usually just go with whole eggs but then I saw that as they prep for a show where they need to be more cut they change it up. They will mix one whole egg with like 4 or 5 egg whites. That way they do get that “healthy moderate” benefits from the whole egg but they also get the benefits listed above with the egg whites in the larger quantity.

this article is stupid to be quite honest. Eating whole eggs are fine. THE FDA are idiots. our Ancestors lived eating fats, meat, fruit and berries. The fact that it is recommeded we eat 300 carbs a day is insane. Saturated fats and Cholesterol from food is good for you its just you should watch our intake. Our grandparents lived into there 8-’s and 90′s eating eggs bacon and toast with butter and on top of that most smoked! Witht hat said teh real problem lies with processed food and carbs.
