Raw egg yolks

Hi,

Anyone eating raw egg yolks as part of there diet ?

I was reading about them earlier, and they are actually very nutrient dense, with Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Selenium, and also Vitamin E, zinc, iron, calcium and B Vitamins.

If anyone does eat egg yolks, how do you eat them ?

I was thinking about adding them to olive oil as a dressing, but i dont think it would be good food combining, egg yolks olive oil and salad fruits and vegtables.

Take Care,
Paul.

I'd use the yolk instead of oil in a dressing, and no fruit in that salad. I think they're also tasty as a dip. You can add herbs like cilatro if you don't enjoy the flavor.; ▶ Reply to This

I can totally tell the taste difference from the EFA "free range vegetarian" egg from Whole Foods. Costs there is about $5 a dz versus $3ish a dz at Whole Foods.; ▶ Reply to This

I went out and bought some eggs today,
They are Free range eegs, and they were expensive :( But thats ok.
I like in the UK by the way they are easy to buy over here.
I will try one raw tonight and see how i get on.

Take Care,
