do eggs have any carbs at all in them?

Scottswald, yes they do. Despite the packaging, eggs do contain a small amount of carbohydrate.

For 2 eggs i.e. around 100 grams, there is about 0.5 grams.

I normally have 5 whole eggs scrambled for breakfast so that's 1.25 grams of carbs. I also make them with diluted double cream instead of milk to keep the carbs down.

Egg whites are the only 100% bio available protein scource on Earth.
Not even the most expensive,scientifically tampered whey comes close.Its just marketing hype!Chicken,beef,fish,whey all have to be broken down by enzymes in the stomach before the proteins can be absorbed.Egg whites are already an enzyme!
The only downside is that egg whites are casein protein.The slowest to make its way to your muscles.6 eggs a day.5 Whites,1 whole,ideally before bed.You'll wake feeling buff but you'll also be able to clear a room in 30 seconds with your ar*e!

just looking at trey brewer's web site, part of his breakfast is 25 egg whites with just two yolks, that must contain a canny bit of protein
