Eggs may be a viable alternative to various types of supplemental proteins given its similar ratings on various measures of dietary protein quality.

The investigators hypothesis is that whole eggs would create a greater improvement in skeletal regulatory markers, hormonal responses and body composition than egg white ingestion in resistance-trained men.
