Abstract: Antioxidants are molecules capable of inhibiting or delaying the oxidation of other molecules. Several foods contain bioactive compounds with antioxidant capacity, including eggs. Due to the population's growing interest in consuming foods with natural antioxidant compounds, eggs can be an option for natural consumption and an alternative in the application of food matrices to replace synthetic antioxidants. This review describes the composition of eggs, compounds responsible for antioxidant properties, and studies of the processing and storage effects on antioxidant content in eggs. Based on recent literature on techniques to obtain, increase, and maintain antioxidants in eggs, protein hydrolysates from eggs are the most studied products and may be an alternative to synthetic antioxidants in human food. However, it is necessary to investigate bioavailability, digestibility, food safety, and other technologies to preserve the antioxidant properties of egg protein hydrolysates.
