About Raw eggs

Raw eggs, a staple in various cuisines worldwide, are prized for their versatility and nutritional profile. Packed with high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B2 and B12, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus, eggs are a nutrient-dense food that supports muscle repair, immune function, and overall health. They are often included in dishes like Korean bibimbap, Japanese tamago gohan, and traditional Caesar dressings. However, consuming raw eggs carries a risk of foodborne illness, particularly salmonella, which can be harmful if eggs are not properly handled or pasteurized. While raw egg whites are low in calories and fat, the yolks contain cholesterol and saturated fats, which may be a concern for individuals monitoring their intake. Despite potential risks, raw eggs can be safely enjoyed with careful selection and preparation while offering substantial health benefits in moderation.
