30 secs if you wan to drink them.. mix them into a blender with oats and some flavouring..sorted

until they start to rise for me.. it doesn't matter, it's safe to eat/drink them no matter how much they've been cooked. they are better nutritionally cooked but since people drink them raw it's fine whatever you do. Good thinking bro.

Get a bowl. Break your eggs in it. Whisk. Throw in a handful of packet frozen mixed veg. Nuke and stir for a couple of minutes and you've got yourself a high protein, low carb nutritious meal. I'm eating one right now

Eggs have the higest bio-available protein source of any food.
I saw the studies on cooked vs. raw but hell those were excluding the yolk.
Just keep the egg an agg.
Are there advantages from a free range egg to a store bought?......yah, 19 times Omega 3 than store bought.
Eggs are less acid ashing than other protein sources, not to mention one of the only occuring sources of Vitamin D naturally occuring in nature.
Beings as you guy dont get alot of sun.......bingo.................

i tried the 30 second rule, most of the whites where liquids and there was some bits that were like a boiled egg. tasted yuck but drank it.

I microwave 280grs for 3'33'', the result is like boiled, so they are more assimilables than raw.
