Is the white part of the egg good for you?

Answered by Egg Farmers of Ontario August 18th, 2026

Answer

Egg whites are packed with high-quality protein while being naturally fat-free and low in calories. Two large eggs contain 13 grams of protein, with the white contributing nearly as much protein as the yolk. That said, the yolk contains valuable nutrients like choline and vitamin D, so don’t skip the yolk!
