eli5: why can’t we eat cookie dough because it’s got raw egg in it, but athletes eat straight raw egg and they’re fine?
In: 197
Any athlete that eats raw eggs has been severely misinformed.
Eggs that are cooked have FAR more readily absorbable protein in them than raw eggs do, and they aren’t a risk for salmonella.
Raw eggs:
1. Poor digestibility
2. Less protein absorption
3. Risk of bacterial infection (Salmonella)
4. May block the absorption of protein
