FAQs

What are egg white protein powders?

The egg white, also known as the albumen, is the clear liquid that surrounds the yellow yolk of an egg. It constitutes about two thirds of the egg by weight, and is made up of 90% water and 10% protein. Egg white protein powder is made with dried egg whites. Spray drying is the most common way to dry (dehydrate) egg whites, and involves blowing pasteurized egg whites into a chamber through which hot air is passing. This process removes almost all of the moisture, leaving behind a fine white powder that is roughly 80% protein. Egg white protein powders can be added to protein shakes, smoothies, oatmeal, and other recipes.

Egg white protein powder is arguably the most natural protein powder, as it requires less processing to make than any other type of animal or plant-based protein powder. Nearly all other protein powders are made with protein concentrates and/or isolates, which are products of significant mechanical and chemical processing. Basically, most naturally-occurring sources of dietary protein do not have enough protein content to be used as a protein supplement. They must be stripped of their non-protein components, which means what you ultimately consume looks nothing like real food. This is one of the reasons why other protein powders are not good for your gut, which is designed to digest only minimally-processed or unprocessed foods.

Are egg white protein powders good for you?

Egg white protein powder is a source of complete protein, meaning it contains all of the amino acids that the body needs, but cannot produce on its own. Egg white protein is also one of the most bioavailable sources of dietary protein, meaning that it is easy for the body to absorb and use it. In fact, it has a protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS) of 100, which is as good as it gets. Moreover, research has shown that despite equivalent amino acid scores and digestion-absorption rates, the net protein utilization (NPU) value of egg white protein is higher than that of any whey protein. This is why egg whites are considered by many to be the perfect source of protein, serving as the standard for comparison for other protein sources.

What are the benefits of egg white protein powders?

Naturally high in protein – First of all, egg whites are naturally high in protein. A dried egg white is roughly 80% protein, which gives it more protein per gram than any other dietary protein source. Other dietary protein sources like peas and whey have to be mechanically or chemically stripped of everything but the protein before they can be used as protein powder. This means that what you are putting in your body does not look like real food.

Easy to digest – The main reason why we use egg whites is that they are easy to digest. Unless you have a sensitivity or allergy to eggs, egg white protein powder is the best protein powder for people with gut issues and sensitive stomachs. It is low in fiber, low-FODMAP, and naturally alkaline, making it particularly easy on the stomach. Our happy customers have experienced fewer digestive issues with egg white protein powder than with any other type of protein supplement. 

Delicious – Egg whites protein powder tastes good, far better than any other type of protein powder. This is because other protein powders are made with protein concentrates and/or isolates, which have a chalky aftertaste. Our egg white protein powders are particularly delicious because the eggs we use are broken less than twenty four hours from when they were laid. This gives them a neutral flavor. Other eggs sit for days, sometimes weeks before being processed. This causes them to release a chemical called hydrogen sulfide, which is known for its potent sulfur (eggy) odor.

Which egg white protein powder is best for you?

The best egg white protein powder for you will depend on your dietary restrictions (if any) and preferences. Continue reading to find out which of our egg white protein powders is the best option for you. 

Vanilla egg white protein powderVanilla egg white protein powder is the most gut-friendly of our flavored egg white protein powders. It is made with real Madagascar vanilla beans, and is a great addition to smoothies and baked goods. If you have gut issues or a sensitive stomach, we recommend starting with vanilla egg white protein powder. 

Chocolate egg white protein powderWhen blended with milk and ice, chocolate egg white protein powder makes a crave-worthy protein shake. That said, it is made with Ecuadorian cocoa, which can trigger heartburn for some people. If you have GERD or acid reflux, we recommend trying samples of our chocolate egg white protein powder, or choosing another flavor. 

Mocha egg white protein powderAdding mocha egg white protein powder to your breakfast is a great way to jump-start your day. It is made with spray-dried Colombian coffee, and contains a small, but noticeable amount of caffeine. If you are sensitive to caffeine, we recommend trying samples of our mocha egg white protein powder, or choosing another flavor. 

Peanut butter egg white protein powderPeanut butter egg white protein powder is made with Georgia peanuts. 1 serving size is low in FODMAPs, and safe for the vast majority of people with IBS. Peanut butter egg white protein powder is also an awesome addition to oatmeal and protein pancakes. 

Unflavored egg white protein powder Unflavored egg white protein powder is the most gut-friendly egg white protein powder. That said, unlike our flavored egg white protein powders, unflavored egg white protein powder does not taste good when mixed with just milk or water. If you want to make protein shake, we recommend blending our unflavored egg white protein powder with ingredients like banana and peanut butter. You can also add it to smoothies, oatmeal, and other recipes. 

Matcha egg white protein powderMatcha egg white protein powder is made with Japanese matcha (green tea). It is a great addition to fruit smoothies, and contains a small amount of caffeine. If you are sensitive to caffeine, we recommend trying samples of our matcha egg white protein powder, or choosing another flavor.

How to use egg white protein powders?

1 serving of egg white protein powder can be mixed with 1-2 cups of cold milk or water to make a protein shake. It can also be added to smoothies, oatmeal, and recipes for an easy protein boost. Check out our egg white protein powder recipes for more ideas. If you do choose to make a protein shake, use a blender or shaker bottle. Unlike other companies, we do not use food additives to help our egg white protein powders dissolve. One final note – our unflavored egg white protein powder, unlike our other egg white protein powders, does not taste good when mixed with just milk or water. It is meant to be added to smoothies, oatmeal, and other recipes.

When to use egg white protein powders?

The best time to add egg white protein powder to your diet is in the morning. Eating lots of protein breakfast will keep you full until lunch, discourage overeating, and reduce snacking later in the day. Higher protein intake at breakfast is also associated with higher total daily protein intake. In other words, a high protein breakfast, despite its satiating effects, allows you to maximize the amount of protein that you consume over the course of the day.

Egg white protein vs whey?

Egg white protein is, from a nutritional standpoint, basically identical to whey protein, which has long been considered to be the gold standard for protein supplementation. Both egg white and whey protein are highly bioavailable complete proteins, meaning they are easily absorbed and used by the body, and both contain all of the essential amino acids that the body needs, but cannot produce on its own. 

One important difference between whey and egg white protein is digestibility. Egg white protein is easy to digest. Dairy-based proteins like whey, on the other hand, are not. Whey, which is a byproduct of cheese and yogurt production, is known to cause digestive issues, especially for people with lactose intolerance.

Another difference between whey and egg white protein is how it affects your skin. Whey protein indirectly stimulates insulin production, which regulates sebum production. Sebum, an oily, waxy substance produced by your body’s sebaceous glands, can clog your pores and cause pimples. It can also hinder your ability to process blood sugar efficiently, causing inflammation in your skin. Egg white protein, on the contrary, will not make you breakout. 

Finally, egg white protein has a considerably smaller environmental impact than whey protein. Dairy cows and their manure produce enormous amounts of greenhouse gas emissions, the poor handling of manure and fertilizers pollute local water resources, and dairy farming and feed production can lead to the loss of ecologically important areas such as prairies, wetlands, and forests

Are there any egg white protein powder side effects?

Unless you have a sensitivity or allergy to eggs, egg white protein powder causes fewer side effects than any other type of protein powder. It is safe for nearly everyone, including pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and children. If egg white protein powder has caused side effects in the past, the other ingredients, not the egg whites, are probably the problem.
