Desi Calorie Counter

Re: Desi Calorie Counter

Whatever you add in with the ingredient will make a difference hence you should calculate the individual calories of every ingredient to come up with the actual calorie intake. Say for example a 100gram boiled potato has roughly 78 calories, however the same 100gram potato once fried with vegetable oil will have approximately 134 calories.

There is no difference if the egg white is boiled or consumed raw. Proteins do denature with heat. However, The amino acids are not substantially altered by cooking therefore the Protein quantity or quality will not be affected in any way.

Must also add that certain studies have shown that the digestion rate of raw egg whites are poor compared to the digestion rate of boiled eggs. So keeping that in mind it is highly recommended to have the egg whites boiled than raw.

Considering the fact that you are In Pakistan and the fact that Egg whites alone are quiet hard to find here in stores, there is a risk of contracting a disease called Salmonella if you choose to go for raw egg whites.
