Egg whites Vs Whey Protein

Arjun

Skilled
Calories & protein in one scoop optimum nutrition whey protein = 130 calories & 23 gms protein

7 boiled egg whites = 119 calories & 24.5 gms protein

I know whey gets digested faster buts isnt that due to adding enzymes in the whey powder which can also some times causes other issues .

Arent egg whites much safer , cheaper & healthier source of protein compared to these whey powders ?

Cheaper, yes, but not necessarily safer. This is because our chickens aren't entirely natural anymore. They are pumped with antibiotics and perhaps even growth hormones. In Mumbai, I have found an organic source of eggs from a brand called Keggs, that too on the packaging label they mention it as "Near organic" Plus they retail at about 96 INR / 6 eggs.
 
Ya keggs claim their chickens are breeded naturally without any artificial interference hence their eggs are healthy compared to local eggs.
But the cost is a bit bomb! If you prefer and can afford keggs than protein then go for it.
 
Keggs egg's yolk is much yellower / brighter and has a rich taste to it compared to the regular egg wherein both it's yolk and the white has little to no taste difference .
