Tracking Tip

Eggs are one of the most nutrient-dense foods per calorie. At 72 cal each with 6g protein, they're a breakfast staple for a reason. The yolk has most of the nutrition — don't skip it unless you're really cutting calories.

Common Questions

Should I eat whole eggs or just egg whites?

Whole eggs. The yolk contains most of the vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats. At only 72 cal per egg, the whole egg is worth it. Egg whites alone (17 cal) make sense only if you need a lot of volume with minimal calories.
