Default Raw eggs!

So ive been eating raw eggs this week.. had 5 this morning! Just cracked them into a glass and downed them..

Eggs have tons of nutrients/proteins/fats.. and apparently eating them raw is helpful, although cooked is good too..

They are organic, free range eggs and local...

anyone else do raw eggs? or like eggs for there health benefits?

My only fear with eggs is apparently they are high in Arachidonic Acid which is inflammatory.. dunno what to do about that, the other benefits seem worth it.. but seeing as ive had some prostate issues and AA is bad for prostate/inflammation in general I suppose I should be careful..

But ive also read stories of guys eating huge amounts of raw eggs over many years and being really healthy because of it..

i think eggs have zinc which is what the prostate needs but that is too much eggs. people that eat that much eggs may have healthier prostates. raw eggs can be bad as they are from chickens too. i would not risk the samonela (spelling) they can carry. egg whites are better in large amounts.

I actually had salmonella about a month ago, but this was before eating raw eggs.. I got it while in japan from eating some meat or something not sure..

5 days of terrible diahhrea and abdominal pain not fun, but it didnt kill me either so im not freaked out about it.

Eggs are chock full of nutrients.. apparently the Yoke is the best part though, and egg whites are not so great. They contain avidin which blocks biotin absorbtion in the body.. which is not good..

Im gonna keep eating raw eggs, but im gonna start cutting out the whites and just eat like 5-6 egg yokes every morning.. Here's an article about it, https://paleodietlifestyle.com/an-egg...e-doctor-away/
