Energy boosting foods are in demand. An egg, nature's answer to the quest for a near-perfect protein, is also your answer to the quest for a highly available, highly functional protein ingredient. Just look at the facts:
  • Eggs contain the most easily digestible, most readily available protein compared to any other type.
  • Eggs are used as the standard for measuring the protein quality of other ingredients.
  • Up to 97% of egg protein is in the form of readily available, essential amino acids.
  • Processed eggs contribute the same high-quality protein as fresh.
