[파이낸셜뉴스] An article published in an American daily newspaper claimed that both egg whites and yolks are good for health, but there are nutritional differences between the two parts. In particular, most of the egg vitamins and minerals are contained in the yolk, so it is not desirable to eat only the egg white.
According to the Korea Food Communication Forum (KOFRUM) on the 13th, USA Today, ‘Is egg white good for health? In an article titled ‘Let’s find out how it compares with the yolk’ on June 29, “Egg whites are low in calories, fat, and cholesterol and are rich in protein, and the yolk is rich in vitamins and minerals.
Egg whites are rich in protein, a nutrient needed to build and repair muscle. It produces cattle and hormones, and helps with overall growth and development. Even the yolk contains a lot of protein. Most of the vitamins and minerals in eggs are concentrated in the yolk. The yolk is a good source of vitamin B, including vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin K, vitamin B12, and folic acid. The yolk contains many minerals such as iron and zinc.
However, the yolk contains some unsaturated fats that are harmful to blood vessel health, is higher in calories, and contains dietary cholesterol. People with certain health conditions, such as familial hypercholesterolemia, may need to limit their dietary cholesterol intake.
So, how many egg whites should you eat per day?
The American Heart Association advises egg lovers to eat one egg or two egg whites a day. How many eggs you can eat per day depends on what foods you eat that day. If your diet is low in cholesterol or protein, you can eat more eggs.
Eggs can be recommended for dieters. This is because the protein and healthy fats in eggs make you feel full quickly. Eating eggs can help with weight management by reducing overall calorie intake.
