Is egg protein powder good for you?

While looking for a protein powder you may have looked at whey or casein or even plant protein powders, but egg protein powder is often overlooked. While not so common these days, egg was the go-to source of protein not so long ago and many athletes today still swear by its benefits even over whey.

Egg protein powder is an excellent alternative to milk proteins for those with a dairy allergy. Egg protein powder is naturally lactose-free and is a complete protein, with all 9 essential amino acids. It has an excellent bioavailability value of 88 which is close to whey proteins 100.

It is considered a medium-speed digesting protein, so keeps protein synthesis going for longer.
