Raw Eggs vs Cooked Eggs, Which One Is Better

There is no inherent benefit to consuming raw eggs compared to cooked eggs. In fact, eating raw eggs can pose certain risks to your health. Raw eggs may contain harmful bacteria such as Salmonella, which can cause foodborne illness. Cooking eggs thoroughly kills these bacteria and reduces the risk of infection. Additionally, cooking eggs makes the proteins in them more digestible and improves nutrient absorption. So, it is generally recommended to consume eggs in their cooked form to ensure safety and maximize their nutritional value.

When eggs are cooked, the heat destroys any potential pathogens, making them safe to eat. Furthermore, cooking eggs enhances the taste, texture, and overall culinary experience. Whether you prefer them scrambled, boiled, or fried, cooking eggs provides a delicious and safe way to enjoy their nutritional benefits. So, it is best to stick to consuming eggs in their cooked form to minimize the risk of foodborne illnesses and fully appreciate the flavors and textures they offer.

This guy sounds like a fool, raw eggs will contain so many more micronutrients. You lose all of them when you cook them. You are only left with the macros basically after cooked.

Been eating raw eggs for more than 25 years now and never got sick!! It's fearmongering

[jamesleatherman]

Its way easier to drink 20 eggs than eating 20

Honestly, if you're going to be avoiding raw eggs for the fear of getting salmonella then you'll never live in peace and enjoy certain foods that have raw egg. For example lemon pie has raw egg and many people eat it. Where is the salmonella at?

[cherrydeli]

You can still get salmonella from cooked eggs if it’s runny, like there’s a small risk either way. Plus the risk of getting infected with salmonella is extremely slim to begin with, also raw egg can be delicious and people enjoy it in many foods, like tamago kake gohan for example.

Salmonella comes from the shell, not the egg!

Doc – Thanks for that. As to salmonella in eggs, I have a few questions. I've heard when you buy pasteurized eggs at market, they have been held at a certain heat, for a certain amount of time. I think the temperature was somewhere around 135F, for I don't know for how long, if even true, with regard to pasteurizing eggs yourself via 'Sous Vide' water baths, in which time/temps are easily controlled.

If true, do you know the time/temperature numbers? I know the longer the time, the less the temperature needs to be, but I don't have a source for that chart. If you do, I would love for you to please pass along the link. Thank you.

I don't know which is better but I actually enjoyed eating raw eggs for the first time today and ate like 3 and will maybe eat one more. Just jug down the boring eggwhite and taste the wonderful eggyolk seperated.🥰🔥🔥

If you prefer your eggs cooked just say that.. stop trying to make it seem silly using the “macho man” stereotype. Actually a lot of convenience and nutritional preservation when eaten raw.

If you don’t have a stove, and that’s why you’re eating them raw. Is it ok to eat over a year or 2?

[alexyates]

I enjoy not having to cook them, wait and clean up. Had them raw for years. As long as it’s from a farm no problem at all

[therorient]

Raw is for the discipline and adventurous and cooked is for the traditional and controlled.

Through it can be balanced, though my example is for the extreme.

Most of his diet is extremely healthy so eating some strawberry and oranges is fine.Also experimenting is a natural part of life.

[corybotelho]

You must've Been paid by Liberal media to say this. I've been eating raw eggs and have never had an issue, as a matter of fact, I've never heard of someone getting salmonella from raw eggs lol

[cookiebob_]

In the UK eating raw eggs is perfectly safe.

[AlmightyAnt]

I blame the movie Rocky for people eating these eggs raw LoL

[msalisond]

Eat raw eggs - mix with ice cold milk or water, and vanilla cinnamon nutmeg cardamom and cloves. consume.

[Mandy-uc]

I'm so grateful for this vid I've 😊recently rescued an American bull 😂puppy and every one, says give him raw eggs.. .. . POV I only give my GG anything I wouldn't eat ❤

[dannyray]

don’t listen to this foo he’s taking your gainz away we didn’t always had access to cooking an egg so what you do just eat it

[wyomingcase]

Right, because "cooking" is not synonym for destruction of nutrients
