Sisters,
Regarding the eggy issue, I believe I read that raw egg white is like a proxy to one of the purest form of protein mankind has known and its the easiest to be absorbed by the body. That is when protein is also call dan4 bai2 zhi4 in chinese, translating to English is called egg white substance. On the other hand, over heating can make it less easily absorbed and destroy the protein. However, the tradeoff is that there are contamination issue with raw eggs. That is why some nurses may advise us to take raw ones while others advise to take cooked ones. Means that raw ones are the best but yet got a lot of risks involved. So I suppose we must measure the risk and see what is the best for us. So for me, I want the best of both worlds, a prefectly cooked egg yet has the least amount of protein destroyed as possible.

hi meow,
thanks for your encouraging words.
but hor, the problem is that my issue still has not been resolved. so, i can't move on to anything.
and next week is the week that we will make a decision based on the BT results....
*sigh*... i wished it could have been a very straightforward failed or succeed... these 3 weeks after first BT really have been a roller coaster ride and hopefully next week will have a concrete answer.
ok lar... start slowly.... from walk a lot to brisk walk to slow jogging....
wow, you are a very active gal! he he.... are you in Raffles Place as well?

Meow,
Heheheee..actually, if all of us become farmers and retreat to the countryside and live a peaceful life, maybe don't need ivf can conceive. In the older days, farmers pop babies like buns leh…
No best eggs lah, just made to with not so "old" but cooked eggs you know..
You are my idol in exercise discipline. If my hubby hear got girls can do that, he will force me to be like you. He was an ex-runner and still forces me to slow jog but I said yoga better ;p
December,
Thanks thanks for your cheers…..I will try my best
…and you are a sunshine girl, staying strong in the face of certainties…good luck and jia you k..

Don't be discouraged. Western research views and tcm views are very different. It does not matter who is right or wrong. What matters is that the future can be improved…check these links out.
