What it is

Egg whites are the clear liquid portion of an egg, primarily composed of water and proteins like albumin. After an egg is cracked, the whites are separated from the yolks. They are often cooked or processed for use in food products.

Why it's used

Egg whites are used as a source of protein and for their functional properties in food. They can act as binders, emulsifiers, and contribute to leavening in baked goods. They are commonly found in processed egg products, baked goods, and some meat products.

Health notes

Egg whites are a natural food ingredient and are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are a good source of protein and contain essential amino acids. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated eggs and egg products, but specific evaluations for 'egg whites' as a distinct ingredient may vary. At typical consumption levels, they are a nutritious part of a balanced diet.

Allergen info

Eggs are one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. Egg whites are derived directly from eggs and are therefore considered a major allergen.
