Dangers of eating raw eggs.

Browse By

Even raw eggs are a source of energy and rich in nutrients. Such as protein, good fats, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. That help protect the eyes, brain, and heart, just like cooked eggs. But eating raw eggs can cause health problems.

Eating raw eggs may put you at risk for the following health problems:UFABET 

Infection with salmonella bacteria ( Salmonella )

Eating raw eggs can increase the risk of salmonella infection. Which is found in hens during egg production. Or it may seep through the egg shell and mix with inside. Especially when we touch eggs or prepare food that contains eggs. 

Salmonella infection can cause symptoms of food poisoning  , often including diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, or fever. In some cases, the symptoms can be severe, chronic, or life-threatening. Especially children under 5 years of age, seniors aged 65 years and over, pregnant women  , and people with impaired immune systems due to various health problems.

The body lacks Biotin.

Eating raw eggs is one of the causes that may result in a decrease in the amount of biotin in the body . This is because raw egg whites contain a protein called avidin. Which binds to biotin in the intestines. This prevents biotin from being absorbed and used in normal processes.  However, the avidin protein is destroyed by heat. People who eat cooked eggs therefore do not suffer from biotin deficiency or a decrease in the amount of biotin in their bodies.
