Eggs

[Guest guest]

My son is 7 HFA, he is not allergic to eggs only to milk. I however am

severely allergic to eggs. If I crack open an egg to cook it and get egg

whites on my hands I break out. Or if I peel a hard boiled egg my hands break

out very bad to the point that it hurts. So I bet it could be possible the

vinegar they use with the coloring of the eggs also might aid in the shell

giving off a protein from the eggs. I also do not color the Easter eggs. My

husband does that with my son:)

Hi Patti, I've read when kids are anaphylactic to eggs this can happen. This

does not sound like your son's problem though. There is a list

for Food Allergic kids called POFAK. You might learn more there.

In pre-school they painted hardboiled eggs with watercolors and this

early evening when he woke up from his nap his behavior was soo bad!

Like how it was before we started enzymes! Is it possible he can still

react to the egg just from holding it?

Thanks Patti

Patti,

Another possibility is the artificial colors. I'm wondering if he is

reacting to the colors, as they probably got on his skin and were

absorbed transdermally. Maybe an epsom salt bath would help detox him?

I really don’t think I can cut out eggs, nor do I see any need to.. as

it is I'm struggling to find things to eat - my family and friends think

I'm mad to try to cut out fruit, dairy AND carbs, they all think I'm

going to be completely malnutritioned and sick from something else very

shortly.. actually woke up this morning feeling flu-ey. I say that

hopefully its only for a short period, that I'll kick this first and

worry about what else I get later..

Everyone here seems to be on lots of supplements to get the proper

nutrition. I don’t like taking supplements and REALLY cant afford them..

what's a good way to make sure I'm getting the right nutrients without

having to spend a fortune, and what ones do I really, really need? I've

heard mega-doses of vitamin C, multivitamins etc (all providing no sugar

or yeast added of course)

Eggs are the richest source of lecithin in nature. When egg yolk is cooked the

lecithin is destroyed so raw egg yolk is especially nutritious.

Judith,

Out of curiosity...how did you cook your eggs (and meat), or did you

eat them raw? did you use raw butter, or pasteurized butter?

Thanks!

Hi Catz,

Most of the eggs were drunk raw in coconut milk eggnog. Beef, if steaks, is

salted and peppered and lightly browned on each side. Pork steak (chops are

too dry for our taste) is fried well done. Frying is done with beef tallow.

If cooked, eggs are fried lightly on each side until the white is solid and

the yolk is all raw.

Roasts are cooked in a slow cooker until they are almost " spoon meat. " (I

know, but we like them that way. And it's the only way my hubby will eat a

roast. "

Butter, sorry to say, is just the grocery store stuff. Not a lot of organics

available, and prohibitively expensive.

We also eat a lot of low-starch veggies, mostly frozen.

Enjoy! ;-)

Dear ,

Noodles will constipate you. Eggs are most nutritious if you don't

cook the yolk. It is okay to cook them, i.e. sunnyside up, poaches,

etc. but scrambling and omelettes cook the yolks too much.

Bee

[Guest guest]

Thanks Bee. Can I cook the eggs in butter or can I only cook with

coconut oil?

Butter has a very low burning point and if you keep the heat low

enough so it won't burn it is okay to use, and delicious, eh?

You can also cook eggs in 1/2 butter and 1/2 coconut oil, OR 1/2

butter and 1/2 extra virgin olive oil. Coconut oil has a much higher

burning point than butter, and the same with olive oil.

Bee

[Guest guest]

Sounds yummy! I have to admit though, I do love browning the butter

and making the edges of a sunny side up egg nice and crispy. Maybe

this will be something to splurge with every once in awhile. MMMMMM

mmmmmmm!

I usually use butter or coconut oil to cook eggs. Occasionally I use bacon

grease. But either butter or coconut oil are OK.

Yes, lots of eggs are great, and extremely nutritious. Have only one

raw egg white a day, but have lots of raw egg yolk if you can. Also

make eggs any which way and eat them all day long if you wish. Try

to get good " certified organic " free-range eggs.

Thank you. There is no grass, just feed and whatever they had on

the barn floor to cover it. I'm sure some bugs must get in the barn

but not being directly outside, their pickins may be slim, lol. I

may suggest to her adding some grass for them. Every little bit

helps.

Dear ,

Fresh eggs are best, but maybe find out how fresh the free-range are

at the health store. My store stocks them every day and they come

from local farmers.

Chickens prefer gravel. Hay is safe to toss in the barn with them but grass

cut from the lawn are cut with a mower that might have oil from blade

lubrication unless they cut theirs with a tractor.

For the best eggs ask the farmer if they are fed organically grown corn.

Otherwise it would be better to feed them something else like oats. Chickens

can truly live well on whatever they scratch up in the yard. You only have

to feed them in the winter. The French lady up the street from us always fed

her chickens and ducks cornmeal with eggs and eggshells and some meat

tablescraps.

> For mayo...room temp eggs. How long do they need to be out of the

fridge to be room temp? And how long can they safely stay on the

counter before being bad? I took 3 out when I got home yesterday at

5:30pm (about). I didn't know how long it would take and then got

really tired so didn't make it. They're still there. Will they be ok

tonight to use for mayo???

Kris,

The eggs you have will be fine IMO. Good luck with it, tell us all

about it, please, and I hope you feel better.

I never ever keep eggs in the fridge. There is no need. You'll know

if they are off by how they smell and look when you crack them. They

will last at least up to the use by date out of the fridge. I

usually keep mine much longer than that, and eat them raw as well
