Nutritive value of an egg
Eggs are among the most nutritious foods on the planet. In fact, a whole egg contains all the nutrients needed to turn a single cell into an entire chicken. However, eggs have gotten a bad reputation because the yolks are high in cholesterol. But cholesterol isn't that simple. The more of it you eat, the less your body produces. For this reason, eating a few eggs won’t cause a high rise in cholesterol levels. Eggs consistently raise HDL (the “good”) cholesterol. For 70% of people, there is no increase in total or LDL cholesterol. Some people may experience a mild increase in a benign subtype of LDL. The egg is one of the most complete and versatile foods available. It consists of approximately 10% shell, 58% white and 32% yolk. Neither the colour of the shell nor that of the yolk affects the egg’s nutritive value. The average egg provides approximately 313 kilojoules of energy, of which 80% comes from the yolk. The nutritive content of an average50gm egg includes 6.3 g protein; 0.6 g carbohydrates; 5.0 g fat (this includes 0.21 g cholesterol). Egg protein is of high quality and is easily digestible. Almost all of the fat in the egg is found in the yolk and is easily digested. Eggs contain every vitamin except vitamin C. They are particularly high in vitamins A, D, and B12, and also contain B1 and riboflavin. Minerals Eggs are a good source of iron and phosphorus and also supply calcium, copper, iodine, magnesium, manganese, potassium, sodium, zinc, chloride and sulphur. All these minerals are present as organic chelates, highly bioavailable, in the edible part of the egg. |

Hello Asmita
I partially knew about the benefits of eating eggs, but by reading your report, I could learn in detail about how nutritiously rich eggs are. I should try in every meal to include eggs.
Thank you for the informative report!

Hey Asmita!
It's Lisa:)
Just had fried egg for breakfast and good to know that I just had something very nutritious!
I did know that eggs contain not only the protein but also other nutritious elements that are good for our health but never had an opportunity to read about it specifically.
Thank you for the informative report :)
Keep up the good work!

Hello Asmita Dd,
I do hope you are fine there and doing great with your works,
Thanks for the detail report on the nutritional value of Egg,
We people have negative analysis of the nutritional value of egg,
Since it contains the good quality of the cholesterol and the egg shell is also rich on the source of calcium which is beneficial to the plant and can be used as source of nutrients,
Keep Writing such a great report,
Green Cheers from Nepal,
Yours,
