    “Eggs are, according to clever marketing, incredible, edible but never advertised as healthy? Have you ever wondered why?
    Eggs Are Hormonally Charged to Harbor Viruses And Bacteria
    If you suffer from any viral or bacterial chronic illness, such as EBV or streptococcus, eggs aren’t your friend, they are a viral host. This is because eggs have a high hormonal makeup that makes them a hotbed for growing viral and even bacterial bugs both inside and outside the body. Those with chronic illness are the most affected by having eggs in their diet.

    Eggs Feed Viruses and Strep
    Eating dairy is never a good idea for people who deal with chronic viral or strep-related issues. However, the one food strep bacteria highly favors is eggs. Beside eggs being a versatile food that we frequently eat, it’s important to recognize that the egg embodies the concentrated hormonal makeup of a chicken. That makes the egg fertile, in a sense, for growth, according to science. In fact, both strep bacteria and the flu vaccine have been known to be grown with eggs used as the fertile base. Symptoms associated wtih chronic strep include:
    cystic acne
    chronic ear infections
    tonsillitis
    migraines
    tonsil stones
    sore throats
    styes
    sinusitis
    UTIs/cystitis/bacterial vaginitis/
    Gut and intestinal issues/IBS/ SIBO

    Eggs Are Used To Grow Viral Bugs in Laboratories

    It is a little-known fact that eggs are widely used to grow viruses in laboratories that produce influenza vaccines. Eggs have also used to grow streptococcus bacteria. In theory, if eggs can harbor and grow bacterial and viral bugs in a lab, then eating them can fuel and even exacerbate viral and bacterial bugs in the body.

    What You Can Eat
    The incredible edible egg has a dark secret of harboring bacteria and viruses, not just salmonella, but if that’s any indication of the egg’s harboring abilities, you won’t be surprised to know that eggs do boost viral and bacterial infections in the body.
    One way to tell if eggs are affecting your chronic condition is to eliminate eggs or anything prepared with egg from the diet for fourteen to thirty day, then reintroduce them into the diet. You can substantially limit viral and bacterial activity in your body by eliminating eggs from your diet entirely. Working to strengthen your immune system is another effective and preventative way to end chronic symptoms permanently. Work closely with your practitioner, Naturopath or a competent Holistic Nutrition Practitioner to create an elimination and diet protocol that works for you.”

    Great podcast as usual.
    I had two questions.
    1. What would you suggest for someone who is either allergic to eggs or cannot tolerate them for other reasons?
    2. I thought that egg whites were not supposed to be eaten raw and that doing so regularly could lead to a nutrient deficiency? This was a long time ago, so perhaps I am mistaken.

    • Hello Elisa,

      With an allergy to eggs (keep in mind that the majority of these allergies are primarily to the egg white, so yolks may be tolerated) I would suggest making sure that you have liver 1-2x per week and do whatever you can to get other sources of choline in place daily.

      Egg whites do contain avidin which does cause biotin deficiencies IF there is a large amount of raw fish or raw egg whites eaten day in and day out. One or two raw eggs a day however would never cause this unless of course someone was already deficient in biotin. With adequate biotin intake, eggs can be eaten raw without issue.

      John
