What is known
Each outcome with its grade (how strong the evidence is, A to D), the size of the effect where the entry records one, and how often studies agree.
- Muscle supportEvidence grade B
Comparable to whey
Moderatemixed
What is uncertain
Read off the same rows as above. Nothing here is added that the entry does not itself record.
- Studies disagree: Muscle support (mixed agreement).
The evidence in words
What it is
Egg-white protein powder is a lactose-free complete animal protein.
How it works
Complete amino-acid profile with good leucine supports muscle protein synthesis.
What the evidence shows
A high-biological-value protein comparable to whey for muscle support; less studied and pricier. A good option for those avoiding dairy but not plants.
Safety & interactions
Very safe; egg allergy is the obvious exclusion.
Bottom line
A quality dairy-free protein for the lactose-intolerant who eat animal products. Works fine; costs more than whey.
