One large whole egg has about 70–80 kcal, 6 g of protein and 5 g of fat.
Eggs are one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can eat — packed with high-quality protein, vitamins A, D and B12, and choline. Here's the breakdown by cooking method.
| Serving | Calories | Protein | Fat |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 large boiled egg | 78 kcal | 6.3 g | 5.3 g |
| 1 large poached egg | 72 kcal | 6.2 g | 5 g |
| 1 large scrambled egg (with butter) | ~100 kcal | 6.5 g | 7 g |
| 1 large fried egg (in oil) | ~90–110 kcal | 6 g | 7–9 g |
| 100 g whole egg | ~155 kcal | 13 g | 11 g |
The white has most of the protein (~3.6 g per egg) and almost no fat. The yolk has the rest of the protein plus all the fat, vitamins and cholesterol. Eating the whole egg is recommended for most people.
