Egg Protein for Sports & Fitness
Why Do Athletes Use It?*
Egg protein is a high-quality, highly digestible, complete protein. While whey protein is widely considered to be the best protein supplement for building muscle, egg protein is similarly rich in branched-chain amino acids, the type of amino acids used to make and repair muscle fibres. Egg protein is considered complete because it provides all of the essential amino acids in adequate proportions to meet the body’s requirements, and in this way it is similar to whey and other proteins from animal sources. Athletes and bodybuilders who use egg protein say it helps them increase muscle mass quickly.
What Do the Advocates Say?*
Egg protein is lactose-free and safe for people with sensitivities or allergies to milk-based proteins (such as whey or casein), soya protein, and other protein supplements. Egg protein is also fibre-free, so people who experience digestive symptoms from pea and hemp protein supplements might find it more tolerable. Unlike soya and pea proteins, egg protein does not contain any phytate and does not appear to interfere with mineral absorption.1, 2
