Somewhere I heard a rumour that avidin is only effective in raw eggs, 
and by cooking the egg white through you destroy the anti-nutrients.  I 
believe there is even a recognised disease caused by eating excess raw 
egg white?

I've always felt the same about eggs as I do about nuts- they are paleo 
if you eat them in a paleo quantity.  Which means I'm being highly 
unpaleo lately, having up to 4 eggs several times a week.
