How Much Protein in Egg Whites ???

[pkraken]

I generally buy Jumbo size eggs from the store that say each egg has 8g of protein. Any idea how much of that is in the yoke? Need to know to calculate my protein intake.

Thx.

It's roughly half and half, with the white having slightly more. Like 3.5 grams in the yolk, 4.5 grams in the white.

Approximately.
