Whats a safe limit per day? I read that its 3 so thats all I have (plus whites that is). I hear some people get up to a dozen, speak on this!

Every day of the week I eat 6 or 7 eggs for breakfast, whole eggs. I tried that Prairie Farms substitute and I couldnt even finish half the plate, NASTY.

True, you don't want to overdo your saturated fat intake, but that said, there is a bunch of nutritional value that you don't get if you leave the yolk out.

For me: 6 whole eggs in the morning, 6 before bed

Egg is safe (at the rate of much more than 3) … the fear is from the yolk and the amount of fat and cholesterol in it … so if u read in a magazine they don’t say egg whites …they say eggs which pretty much means the whole egg

I use to eat 20 whites a day with no problem … I don’t think any harm can be done to the human body from egg whites (unless they are rotten)

4doz, that's nothing to shake a stick at...but I got you beat 7doz wk. Needless to say I could do without eating another egg for a while, but it will do for now...it's all part of the master plan

Glad to know there is someone else here who knows how to eat

I eat 6 to 7 egg whites each night . Put them in the mixer(on HIGH)with a pack of splenda till they are nice and fluffy , like pie meringue (got the idea when making my husband a lemon pie). put it in the oven 400 till a little brown on top. YUMMY just like cheating and all protein!

My 5 year old calls it FLUFF.

I don't think egg whites are ever bad for you unless you eat them raw..........the yolks are great also--lots of good stuff in them. I think newest research is the cholesterol in them does not turn into bad cholesterol in the human body and you CAN eat them raw.

I probably go through about three dozen eggs every two weeks (usually has whole eggs - however, I'm not objected to eating egg whites).

I have 10 Egg Whites every day for breakfast. Egg Whites Int sells them by the gallon. I usually pay like $100 for 4 jugs. Usually mix them in a blender with 1 scoop of vanilla Whey, 1/2 cup of oats, 5 big strawberries. Quick and easy.

Ledd · « **Reply #14 on:** January 24, 2006, 07:25:11 PM »

I eat my eggs whole, scrambled a cup and a half after my morning workout, 46 grams protein.

Sounds good, props on eating the whole egg! Egg white only have their place as well at certain times, but so do whole eggs, so again, glad to see someone else realises that.

...see, I'm not always a pompous ass hole

hey guys I think I just got salmonia poisening from making a shake which included 3 raw eggs. I decided to try eating raw eggs again today.. Now I feel like I am swallowing something all the time that isn't there.

Is that it?

gibberj2 · « **Reply #17 on:** January 25, 2006, 12:54:44 AM »

if you get salmonella you're probably just fight it off no problem in a day or two.

ignorance · « **Reply #18 on:** January 25, 2006, 08:15:18 AM »

4 whole eggs everyday, then after an hour later I have 3 packets of Oatmeal with Cinnamon and raisins.

"Yummy yummy bread sticks."

ya i feel better today thx so does this mean I can no longer get it?

gibberj2 · « **Reply #20 on:** January 25, 2006, 08:27:03 AM »

you can get it every time you eat eggs that have it. or raw meat or whatever but it's only serious if you're a baby or an old man or something. healthy adult males with normal immune systems can fight it easy.

alexxx · « **Reply #21 on:** March 24, 2006, 05:22:25 PM »

So how many whole eggs a day is safe?
