What it is

Dried egg whites are made by removing the water from egg whites. This process concentrates the protein content of the egg white. They are typically sold as a powder and can be reconstituted with water to their original liquid form.

Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated egg products, and they are widely consumed without adverse health effects at typical intake levels.
