An egg is really three separate foods, the whole egg, the white, and the yolk, each with its own distinct nutritional profile.
A whole egg is a high-fat, high-cholesterol, high-quality protein food packaged in a high-calcium shell that can be grounded and added to any recipe. The proteins in eggs, with sufficient amounts of all the essential amino acids, are 99 percent digestible, the standard by which all other proteins are judged.
The egg white is a high-protein, low-fat food with virtually no cholesterol. Its only important vitamin is riboflavin (vitamin B2), a visible vitamin that gives egg white a slightly greenish cast. Raw egg whites contain avidin, an antinutrient that binds biotin a B complex vitamin formerly known as vitamin H, into an insoluble compound. Cooking the egg inactivates avidin.
An egg yolk is a high-fat, high-cholesterol, high-protein food, a good source of vitamin A derived from carotenes eaten by the laying hen, plus vitamin D, B vitamins, and heme iron, the form of iron most easily absorbed by your body.
One large egg has 5 g Eat (1.5 g saturated fat), 212 mg cholesterol, 6 g protein, 950 IU vitamin A (19 percent of the RDA for a man, 23.7 percent of the RDA for a woman), and 0.72 mg iron (4.8 percent of the RDA for a woman of childbearing age).
One large egg white has 4 g protein, but no Eat or cholesterol. One large egg yolk has 6 g fat (1.7 g saturated fat), 272 mg cholesterol, 3 g protein, and 970 IU vitamin A (19.4 percent of the RDA for a man, 24 percent of the RDA for a woman).
The most nutritious way to server egg is with extra whites and fewer yolks to lower the fat and cholesterol per serving. Those on controlled-fat, low-cholesterol diet or low-protein diet should exclude this food.
Eggs are a great source of protein. They also contain choline, which is good for your brain, and lutein, which is a nutrient that helps keep eyes healthy.
what is the nutrients of egg?
it gets it nutrients from the yolk of the egg it gets it nutrients from the yolk of the egg
Egg white and yolk.
the whole egg
an egg 1 cell.... did you know that?!?!
it is the proteins in the egg when they are heated enough it couses them to solidify
It is the yolk that provides the nutrients for an unhatched chick.
All nutrients for the 21 day growth of the embryo are available in the yolk of the egg.
Not in the normal sense. The developing embryo absorbs nutrients already in the egg.
No desi eggs are more nutrition than the table eggs!
A bird's egg is a self-contained unit. Everything the fetus needs to grow to birth weight is contained in the egg. The yolk provides the nutrients to bring that single-cell egg to birth stage. In humans, the nutrients are provided from the mother to the fetus by the umbilical cord.
Provides nutrients and a protective environment for the early embryo.
