In addition, eggs have bacterial infection and food safety problems, and not heating may lead to bacterial infection and adverse reactions. Therefore, it is suggested that eggs should be cooked by heating or boiled into hot dishes such as egg drop soup to ensure food safety and nutrient absorption.
