The egg is considered a perfect protein source because of its complete makeup of essential amino acids, branched-chain amino acids and glutamic acid. Once egg protein is in your system, it is completely absorbed by your body. A recent study at Ball State University in Indiana revealed that individuals given egg protein had more than measurable positive reactions in total testosterone and hemoglobin production. But what about the fat? The white part of an egg contains no fat at all, while the yolk contains about five grams, but only a small portion of that is saturated fat—about 1.6 grams. So for awesome protein power, there’s nothing like the egg-ceptional power of eggs!
