Importance of eggs in Bodybuilding

-

Eggs are very rich sources of protein. One normal size egg has around 6.5g of protein(4g in the egg white and 2.5g in the yolk). Protein found in egg white(=4g) is lean, means it doesn't have any other macro like carbohydrate or fat. While the yolk part has 0.6g of carbohydrate, 5g of fat and 180mg of bad cholesterol along with the protein.   


  









According to health organizations, not more than 300mg of bad cholesterol is allowed in a day. So, you can consume only one whole egg in a day. There is no such restriction with the egg whites, eat as many as you want.

Eggs are like a treasure to the eggetarians(vegetarian but eat eggs). As we know that vegetarian foods are poor in protein content. So, they are the only means through which they can fulfill their protein needs.
