hello dinesh, Eggs are a great source of a complete high quality protein with few calories. One whole egg has 5.5 grams of protein in only 68 calories. Eggs contain choline, which is important, especially since our bodies can not produce enough of it. Without enough choline, you can also become deficient in another essential nutrient, folic acid.Let’s take a closer look at each. Egg whites are a low-calorie, fat-free food. They contain the bulk of the egg’s protein. The egg white contains about 4 grams of protein, and only 17 calories, whereas, Egg Yolks carry the cholesterol, the fat and saturated fat of the egg. However, what is often overlooked are the many nutrients that come with that, such as the fat-soluble vitamins, essential fatty acids and other nutrients. One egg yolk has around 55 calories, 4.5 grams of total fat , 2.7 grams of protein.As you can see, the egg yolk has more actual nutrients, but in my opinion the entire egg gives the most complete nutrition.
