Sumario:[Image: see text] This study aimed to in vitro assess the impact of the cooking process of eggs (hard-boiled, poached, and omelet) on nutrients digestibility and vitamins A and D3 bioaccessibility under elderly gastrointestinal (GI) conditions. Three elderly digestion models were mimicked: oral (E1); oral and gastric (E2); and oral, gastric, and intestinal (E3), and a healthy adult model (C). Proteolysis extent reduced after digestion of omelet under the E3 model (p < 0.05) (up to 37% of reduction). Thus, hard-boiled and poached were more recommendable to enhance protein digestibility in elders. Altered GI conditions negatively influence neither the absorbable lipid fraction nor the cholesterol stability. Finally, vitamin A bioaccessibility was not affected but D3 slightly decreased with the elderly (E3). Hence, the digestion of nutrients was dependent on the resulting matrix, poached being the greater supplier of protein and lipid end-digestion products. Poached and omelet, however, offer a high net supply of bioaccessible vitamin D3 for elders.
