Biotin

I'm going to ask one question, I've read that raw eggs will deplete the biotin in your system. That's one of the B-vitamins.

[Aajonus]

In my book, there's a misprint. There was a spellcheck that went through and changed avidin to albumin. So, it's the avidin that binds with the biotin and that only happens in a chemistry lab. It doesn't happen in the body.

[Attendee]

So, you're saying raw eggs don't?

[Aajonus]

No, they do not.

[Attendee]

So, what you're saying the people who are saying that are saying it because of the laboratory-

[Aajonus]

It happens in the laboratory, but it doesn't happen in the human body. You use a lot of biotin in the process of changing over biocarbon's in the body.

So, when you get raw eggs, you're going to use that biotin- you're going to find avidin present within that complex, but it's not a deprivation, it's a utilization to transfer biocarbon's. And I mentioned that in the book, just remember when you get to that part that talks about albumin, it's supposed to be avidin.
