Nutritionists commonly refer to eggs as the "Gold Standard" for protein quality. Eggs contain all of the eight essential amino acids (the type that your body cannot make from other substances) and very high levels of total amino acids — especially important sulfur-containing aminos. Eggs are also redialy digested and absorbed. As a lactose-free protein source, eggs are often more tolerable to people who have trouble with dairy foods. For these and other reasons, eggs have been a staple of bodybuilders' diets since the beginning of the sport.

The biggest problems with using whole eggs for a major source of dietary protein are the accompanying "undesirables" (chloesterol and saturated fat) and the inconvenience of trying to store and prepare them when out-and-about. Thanks to advances in egg processing, both of these limitations can be easily overcome.

Using specialized equipment and sophisticated processing techniques, the cholesterol-laden egg yolk can be separated from the virtually fat and cholesterol-free egg white to yield a product that is nearly all protein. The liquid egg white protein is then spray-dried with an "instantizing" agent to improve mixability and eliminate the need for refrigeration. The result is a protein powerhouse; the result is ON's 100% Egg Protein!

A single serving of ON's 100% Egg Protein provides the protein equivalent of seven egg whites (22 grams) and takes under 30 seconds to prepare. Better yet, ON's 100% Egg Protein contains only 100 calories, 2-3 grams total carbohydrates, and no sugar so it's great for contest dieting and carbohydrate-controlled meal plans.
