As for egg protein, its one of the "oldest"
proteins used in bodybuilding. Egg protein comes from egg
whites, which has the highest protein efficiency ration
(PER) of 3.9. This even beats out whey protein's PER which
is 3.2.
Many bodybuilders drink egg whites, or
cook dozen of eggs at a time just to get enough egg protein;
however, the high cholesterol content in eggs (especially
the yolk) is rather unhealthy. Personally, I used to fry
up 4 to 6 eggs every breakfast and throw away 1/2 of the
yolks (which really isn't much compared to others). Even
with this, I think I was getting much more cholesterol than
I should've been taking in... now, I don't eat eggs too
often, simply because of cholesterol reasons. Instead, its
much easier, and healthier to get egg protein from powder,
not to mention the convenience.
Egg protein has a full amino acid profile
like whey protein, and is the ideal protein that offers
optimal absorption and utilization by the body. Ok, enough
about egg protein, and let's take a look at our comparison
results in this final category.
