One egg contains around 7 grams of high-quality protein and all 9 essential amino acids. Eggs contain no carbs so are perfect for anyone on a low carb diet. Many individuals who are into health and fitness tend to split the yolks and the white and opt to just eat the Whites.
Egg Whites are very low in calories ( roughly around 14 calories in each egg white) and high in protein ( around 4 grams in one EggWhite).
They are a good source of choline. One egg yolk has about 300 micrograms of choline. Choline is an important nutrient that helps regulate the brain, nervous system, and cardiovascular system.
Eggs contain the right kind of fat. One egg contains just 5 grams of fat and only 1.5 grams of that is saturated fat. Eggs promote healthy hair and nails because of their high sulphur content and wide array of vitamins and minerals.
Eggs can be cooked in a variety of ways including boiled, scrambled, poached and made for several dishes such as omelette, cakes, pancakes, crepes and many more. They can be found at any supermarket or groceries and are inexpensive. Eggs are also quick and easy to make, which tastes great.
