Raw Egg Whites or Just Whites

[Guest guest]

I see several SCD recipes that look really good, but call for raw egg

whites that never cook. I am really germ phobic, but wondered if this

is truly a concern or not? I get my eggs fresh from my brother. He

does not give his chickens antibiotics, shots or anything, but does

feed them grain and flax seed occasionally just for me (longrunning

joke with us where I used to try to hide flax in everything I baked

for my family and he found out and refused to eat my cooking anymore!)

I've seen the powdered pastuerized egg whites called (I think) " Just

Whites " . Are these SCD legal or does the processing cause trouble?

I don't want to give my son anything to hurt him, so have avoided

these recipes so far. Prior to this we were egg free for over 2 years

so this whole having eggs thing is a relearning process.

Anyone have advice as to safety/legality of either choice?

Thanks,
