You could and they are lower in calories, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that they are better for you. Egg beaters are basically just the whites of the egg with some coloring added to make them look like whole scrambled eggs. The problem with this is most of the nutrients in eggs are in the yolks.
Interestingly enough, Egg Beaters have about double the sodium content of a whole egg, so if you are sensitive to sodium, it could cause some water retention if you eat a lot of them. I'd say stick with whole eggs; your body needs the nutrients since you're not giving it much else besides meat and eggs.
