Five ileostomy patients were studied

Is there anything out there that doesn't have someone with a health problems? I just googled what the hell ileostomy means lol. Now, I don't believe the surgery itself (putting the intestine through the stomach) has anything to do with digestion per say (not sure), but I'm wondering what effects on digestion (if any) could these factor's have?
I tried all morning and couldn't find any studies besides this one. I'm looking because there's a lot of stuff both for and against eating raw foods in general.. Mainly all for safety purposes, and aside from this one study, there's nothing conclusive about assimilation of proteins raw vs. cooked aside from one study with patients that are having ileostomy surgery. Not that it matters, but I DO find it interesting though since I've been using my morning/night shakes for a long time now. Good food for thought for everyone who has been doing this for years and were wondering if it's safe/effective..
I think to sum it up, I believe that it's beneficial from the standpoint of being time efficient and extremely filling/tasty to add a few eggs into your protein shakes. Hands down. And supposing that study was accurate, if you throw in 5 eggs with your 45 gram protein shake and digest half the protein in the eggs, that still boosts your shake up to 15 more grams of slow digesting proteins.. As for the digestibility, IMHO it's probably better to cook them if you plan on having a MEAL out of them. Not only due to the greater assimilation, but also from the health standpoint of your digestive system as a whole (trying to suck down 12 raw eggs in a sitting lol is not an attractive idea).
I'm just going to post everything I can find on this subject just to make for a thorough thread.
