Serving size, prep, and portion notes for egg white protein
Egg white protein is dried albumen, and it earns its place as the carb-free whey alternative: no dairy protein, no lactose, no FODMAPs, no gluten, and next to nothing on oxalate, nickel, salicylates or glutamates. Its one distinctive flag is easy to miss. Raw egg white is a classic histamine liberator, and the gentle pasteurisation used on dried albumen deliberately keeps the proteins functionally raw so the powder still whips, which is why this row grades C where the cooked egg white on your plate does not. The bigger exclusions are structural: egg is a major allergen, one of the six foods removed for EoE (E), and the whole egg family is off the table during an AIP elimination.
Watch for
A histamine liberator in shake form (C). A scoop concentrates the albumen of about seven egg whites and a shake never cooks it, so flushing or itching can appear even though the powder contains almost no histamine itself. / Baking with it is different: the liberating proteins are heat sensitive, so a fully cooked muffin behaves more like a cooked egg than a raw shake. / Egg is a declarable allergen and one of the six foods in an EoE elimination diet. This powder is the most concentrated form of the specific egg fraction most allergies target. / Excluded on AIP, where egg white in particular is a late reintroduction because of lysozyme. / Vegetarian but not vegan, and flavoured tubs can add sweeteners the plain grades do not include.
