How much protein?

[Smokescreen]

The carton of eggs I'm looking at says that one egg is 8grams of protein.

How much protein will this one egg be if I do NOT eat the egg yolk? Will it be down to 7 or 6grams of protein?

You must be looking at jumbo eggs... Large eggs have 6 grams of protein... The egg white in a large egg has 3.5 grams of protein and 17 calories

Yes sir. Jumbo eggs is what I'm talking about. So if I remove the egg yolk, how much protein will one jumbo egg be? Again...without the egg yolk.

Wtf?! So from 8grams of protein down to 4.5grams of protein by NOT eating the egg yolk? Shit!!! That's a lot of protein lost by not eating the egg yolk.

Is this information correct? Are you guys sure about this?

Genral rule of thumb is that 50% of the protien is in the yolk likewise about 90% of the fat and cloresterol is in there too so use ur marcos. Its good fat and good cloresterol so not bad for u just depends on ur goals

im more than 100% sure on this but your also leaving out the fact that the egg white has NO FAT, NO CHOLESTEROL, NO SATURATED FAT... None of that shit... taking that into consideration, that should explain to you why many just eat the egg white... i don't touch the yolks, ever... If you are trying to bulk, then some yolk is fine but not on a cut...

You cut down the amount of protein per egg by removing the yolk, but it makes it much more healthy. To compensate just eat more egg whites

Shit! So like half of the protein is gone simply by removing the egg yolk huh? Shit.

So from 8grams of protein per Jumbo egg down to now 4.5grams per jumbo egg white.

The calories say that one Jumbo egg white is 90 cals. 50 of them from fat. So if I "remove" the fat (egg yolk), does that mean that now each jumbo egg went from 90 cals down to 40cals?
