Does eating raw eggs leads to food poisoning

Eating raw egg will lead to poisoning is recent claim of some doctors. It is a common saying that eating raw egg is more nutritious and effective than cooked or boiled egg. We usually eat it raw to get instant stamina. It is widely considered in Asian countries as a medicine to cure body pain and muscle pain.

It has been proved that eating raw egg increases the possibilities that a person may get affected by number of diseases caused by micro organisms such as salmonella or typhoid bacteria . Salmonella bacteria mainly cause severe food poisoning. Typhoid bacteria that may be present on the egg shell will easily penetrate the cortex and reside within the juice inside the egg. And also eating eggs without cooking it properly is in a way same as taking these harmful bacteria to our body. Eating uncooked egg prevent gastric juice from elimination of the bacteria inside the stomach.  But in case of cooked egg these bacteria will be eliminated easily by cooking temperature. It is also important that the raw egg does not provide the benefits of Vitamin B9 or Biotin which is one of the important Vitamins of the body. The white of egg contains a protein called avidin strongly associated with Biotin and prevents its absorption by the gut and this protein turns into a form safe for the body when cooked. Eating raw egg also increase the risk of cholesterol overload. An egg yolk contains two-third of the cholesterol the body needs throughout the day, which is equivalent to 200-300 mg. And it is very well known fact that increased cholesterol level will decrease the chance of a healthy heart. Cooked egg is free from all this problems and it is safe to eat and reduce the risk significantly.
