 How many egg whites should one eat per day?

The number of egg whites you can eat per day depends on your activity level and overall diet:

• Sedentary individuals: Aim for 6-10 egg whites daily if you aren't consuming much protein from other sources [1].
• Active individuals: You can go up to 18-20 egg whites per day, spread throughout meals [1]. This is assuming you're looking to build muscle.

Important things to remember:

• These are general guidelines. It's always best to consult a registered dietitian or healthcare professional for personalized advice.
• Egg whites are a good source of protein, but they lack other nutrients found in the yolk, like vitamins and healthy fats. Make sure to include other protein sources in your diet for a well-rounded intake.
