Egg white, the translucent liquid within an egg, is known for its high protein content and minimal fat and cholesterol, making it a popular choice in health-conscious diets. Comprising mostly water and albumin protein, it provides essential amino acids while being low in calories. Originating from eggs that have been a dietary staple globally, egg whites are versatile and commonly used in cooking across various cuisines, from meringues in French pastry to Asian stir-fries. Nutritionally, they support muscle repair and growth, making them ideal for athletes or those seeking lean protein sources. However, raw egg whites may pose a risk of bacterial contamination, such as salmonella, and can inhibit biotin absorption, which is essential for energy metabolism and skin health. For optimal safety and nutrition, cooking is recommended.
