Egg whites held the title for decades. The yolk deserves a rematch. 🍳 🥚 Egg whites are basically pure protein. 3.6g for 18 calories, no fat, no cholesterol, and all nine essential amino acids. 🟡 But almost everything else lives in the yolk: vitamin A, B12, vitamin D, choline, selenium. The white has 0% daily value of most of them. 💪 Calorie for calorie, whites still win on protein. Eat 74 calories of egg whites and you get nearly 15g vs. 6.2g in one whole egg. The move isn't picking a side. Add whites to whole eggs and you get the protein without losing the nutrients. 🔗 Tap the link in bio for the full breakdown. #eggs #protein #nutritionfacts #highprotein #healthyeating Before you read it, we reviewed it.
