Is it weird that I literally drink this with meals?!

not weird. I used to eat raw eggs.
Lots of conflicting info on whether the protein is assimilated better cooked vs raw.

I don't feel salmonella is a valid concern. They say like 1 in 20,000-30,000 eggs has salmonella.

Everything I've read states that the Bio availability of raw egg whites is around 50-70%

I go thru 3 cups a day of the exact same egg whites. I usually scramble them but sometimes just add them to shakes or smoothies.

No, I don't think it's weird. I know many who drink shakes with their meals to get extra Kcal. It's all about getting those Kcal in each and every day.

Sisters right...as usual ...I have a lot of female clients that drink their eggs. They just can't eat enuff. Most men eat theirs. I've done both.

Usually this is due to an imbalance of macros. When I was once a young known it all I would get myself into a Leto stage eating more protein and fat that was needed. I would fart my brains out. Then the otherwise of me came out when I was on a "bulk" carb craze. I farted the most then but the smell was absolutely horrendous during the keto phase.

Net net, I thinks it boils down to to much of one macro or another.
