Are Eggs Good for Building Muscle?

 

Are Eggs Good for Building Muscle? Eggs do contain a large variety of nutrients, as well as dietary cholesterol. The dietary cholesterol does not appear to cause nor promote cardiovascular diseases in healthy persons. Egg yolks are rich with B-vitamins, trace minerals, vitamin A, folate, choline, lutein, and other powerful nutrients. There’s no question that vegetarian bodybuilding is easier with eggs integrated into the meal plan.

ARE EGGS HEALTHY, AND THE TRUTH ABOUT EGG YOLKS

Are eggs healthy? Absolutely.

Do vegans eat eggs? No, but most vegetarians do.

This article talks about the nutrition of eggs, and discusses the broader topic of ethics.

Eggs do contain a large variety of nutrients, as well as dietary cholesterol. While the latter does not appear to cause nor promote cardiovascular diseases in healthy persons, diabetics may need to exert some caution if eggs are not consumed alongside a weight loss program. – Examine.com

The article of the quote above goes on to say that there isn’t an increased risk (of stroke and coronary artery disease) in persons consuming one-six eggs a week or “greater than six eggs a week” relative to no egg consumption overall.

That means I can potentially eat 16 eggs a day without any risk of my heart exploding. It also means what I’ve been reading in vegan, fitness, and mainstream magazines is either intentional misinformation or unintentional ignorance.

Can we compassionately eat eggs?

Yes, I think it’s possible. Some vegans will argue that all egg production is inhumane, that even if the egg carton states they are “free range” or “cage free” somewhere down the line the hens are still being mistreated. This can be true in some cases, but not all. This is more misguided information being unfairly widespread. In reality, we can get eggs from local farmer’s markets that are compassionately raised/produced.

Recently, it has been well-documented that plants themselves have a form consciousness, so we don’t truly know if they experience any physical pain just because they don’t have a central nervous system.

Well, actually, some experts say they do:

A number of studies have shown that plants feel pain, and vegetables are picked and often eaten while still alive. – Phil Cohen, Sydney, Australia

This is the pattern of science since its birth. The moment we think we “know” something, we discover something else that disproves the previous “truth” and completely changes our perception about the world we live in.

Producing food inhumanely (plants, animals, or abuse of human labor) is never a good thing. Humans must consume life in some form for nutrition. However, we can all agree that unnecessary suffering doesn’t have to be a part of the equation.

Are egg whites healthy?

Yes, they are, but you should think twice about ordering that egg white omelet.

By tossing the yolk, you’re essentially throwing out the most nutrient dense part of the egg. Yolks are rich with B-vitamins, trace minerals, vitamin A, folate, choline, lutein, and other powerful nutrients.

There’s no question that vegetarian bodybuilding is easier with eggs integrated into the meal plan.

In fact, they are one of 7 “fatty” foods for a flat stomach.

Eggs are one of the few foods that I would classify as “superfoods.” They are among the most nutritious things we can eat without question, containing virtually every nutrient we need. Omega-3 enriched eggs are even healthier.

Little-Known Fact: There is not much protein in the actual yolk (relative to the whites); however, the protein in the yolk has a high concentration of the amino acid Leucine.

For those who want an alternative, you can consider this egg substitute below.

VEGAN EGG SUBSTITUTE THAT’S MADE OUT OF PLANTS

Vegan egg substitute made out of peas, sorghum, and nine other plants.

Us vegetarian bodybuilders need our protein and I think you would be happy to know that Hampton Creek Foods has produced something revolutionary!

This High-Tech startup is shaking up the $9 Billion Dollar Chicken Industry, by demonstrating that we can create something more effective with a compassionate vision (eating less animals). It has been said these plant-based eggs are healthier, stay fresher longer, and cost approximately 19 percent less than real eggs.

From what I can tell, the bottom line is that they are using science and culinary expertise to replicate egg products at a fraction of the cost. The good news is that have already made their way to the shelves of stores like Whole Foods.

How do they taste?

In blind taste tests, Bill Gates, Tony Blair, Fast CoExist’s Ariel Schwartz, and Huffington Post’s Nile Cappello couldn’t tell the difference between products baked with Beyond Eggs and those that weren’t.

How to Get Enough Vegan Protein to Build Lean Muscle?

WHY MOST NEW VEGETARIANS GO BACK TO MEAT

The truth is, for as harmful as meat consumption can be (especially red meat), it’s still the most convenient source of protein available to bodybuilders.

This is one of the primary reasons new vegetarians eat meat again. Most of us are insanely busy already, and if you add on top of that our training needs (grocery shopping, meal prep, gym time), convenience matters.

Can you build muscle without meat? Absolutely!

There are many misconceptions about this path of nutrition, so I wanted to get into some of the nuances behind why people decide to try a plant-based diet, and then go back to eating meat again. It should prove useful to those who are new vegetarians or thinking about trying it.

The HRC formed a coalition a few years ago to study why people go vegetarian or vegan.

According to HRC:

A small proportion of U.S. adults (1-3%) are “actual” vegetarians or vegans, although about twice that number describe themselves as vegetarian when asked. Research on the motivations for both actual and self-described vegetarians (and vegans) finds that members of these groups select their diets based on multiple factors.

Usually including one primary motivator and one or more secondary motivators.

The most frequently cited factors are related to ethics and health. Vegans are more often motivated by ethics than any other reason. The most significant barriers to vegetarianism and veganism are concerns about preferred taste, nutritional deficiencies, and convenience.

Why do vegetarian bodybuilders choose a plant-based path?

Health, of course, is a major diet motivator. Research published in Climate Change found that reduced meat intake also reduces the number of dietary greenhouse gas emissions. A vegetarian diet additionally lowers risk for disease and boosts life expectancy, while red meat has an adverse effect on these aspects of health.

But in a majority of the former vegetarian cases, health is the only motivator for going veg in the first place. Other reasons include:

  • compassion for animals
  • general disgust in animal products (e.g., mad cow disease)
  • taste
  • influence from significant other

Interestingly, former vegetarians told the HRC they disliked their diet for “making them stick out in a crowd” and being unable to interact with other like-minded dieters and see the diet as part of their identity — not because of the food they were limited to.

Is there something that pulls you away from the path of plant-based nutrition that wasn’t mentioned here?

  • not convenient
  • standing out from others (or being teased)
  • too boring, not enough flavor or variety
  • not getting enough protein
