Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Egg Protein - Egg Whites Have Been a Staple of BodyBuilders
Nutritionist 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 readily digested & 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 (cholesterol 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 & 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.
A single serving of Optimum Nutrition'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 to 3 grams total carbohydrates, and no sugar so it's great for contest dieting and carbohydrate-controlled meal plans.

Directions:
SPOON STIRRED: Gold Standard 100% Egg is INSTANTIZED. That means if you forgot your shaker cup or don't have time to get out the blender, you can just add one heaping scoop of Gold Standard 100% Egg to a glass filled with 6-8 oz of cold water, milk or your favorite beverage. Then mix it up with a spoon for about 30 seconds or until powder is completely dissolved.
SHAKER: Bringing a shaker cup with you to the gym is the best way to get a powerful dose of protein immediately after your workout. Just add one heaping of Gold Standard 100% Egg to your shaker cup and then pour in 6-8 oz of your preferred beverage. Cover and shake for 25-30 seconds.
BLENDER: Add one heaping scoop of GOLD Standard 100% Egg to a blender filled with 6-8 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. Blend for 15-20 seconds. Then add 3-4 ice cubes and blend for an additional 20 seconds. SHAKE UP YOUR SHAKE: By adding a few high-energy ingredients to your shake you can blend up a delicious meal: try adding fresh bananas, peanut butter, flaxseed oil, coconut, slivered almonds, or other ingredients.
SUGGESTED USE: Consume approximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day through a combination of high protein foods and supplements. For best results, consume your daily protein allotment over several small meals spread evenly throughout the day.
