So ive got my diet on track now however i have a questions regarding the egg nutrients after the seperation of the yolk…
I buy ‘large’ eggs:
servings:1 egg
calories:70
fat:4.5grams
carbs: <1gram
protein:6grams
…so i guess what my question is: After seperation on the egg yolk from the egg whites how much protein remains in the eggwhites and how does it change the rest of the nutritional values: calories,fat,carbs,protein?
If anyone knows please let me know.

From 1 large egg, after seperating the yolk, the values you are most likely to see are:
Calories: 15
Fat: 0
Carbs: cut in half (pointless to count)
Protein: 4g
Most of your protein is found in the whites, although fat contains protein as well. Most of your calories come from that fat.
Hope this helps

The yolk contains all of the fat (as you know) and about half of the overall protein of the egg (about 3g).
The yolk also contains just about all of the micro-nutrients of the egg as well, and the fat in the egg is divided up nicely between a little saturated, poly-unsaturated and mono-unsaturated fats.
The baby chicken is in the yolk, that’s where all the good stuff is. Unless you are dieting very heavy and cannot afford the calories, don’t ditch the yolk, it’s your friend.
