In this video, I want to talk about the difference between egg yolk and egg white. This is a question I get a lot.
Many people only eat egg whites because they think that egg yolk is unhealthy, and it will lead to clogged arteries. This is a big mistake. Most of the good nutrition is in the yolk. Yes, egg yolks contain cholesterol, but this will not clog your arteries.
Keep in mind that when you consume cholesterol, your body simply makes less of it. In fact, only around 25% of your cholesterol comes from your diet-your body makes the other 75%.
You need cholesterol for your brain, cells, membranes, and hormone production.
Egg yolks also contain healthy fat-soluble vitamins-A, E, D, and K2. In addition, it contains trace minerals, vitamin B12, folate, phospholipids, calcium, and immunoglobins.
Egg whites contain most of the protein, avidin, B2, B3, magnesium, and potassium.
I recommend that you consume both egg yolk and egg white. Always go with farm-raised and organic eggs.

Unfortunately when people think of superfood, they think of some berries, nuts or spices but almost no one thinks of eggs.
My husband 3 to 4 eats them fried in butter, for one of his 3 meals, but leaves them runny. He needs 50 carbs per meal or he will lose too much weight.
I love eggs and eggs love me

As a farmer, I beat my head against the wall trying to teach people this information. Also, let me make this clear for those who have been misinformed, IF THERE IS NO ROOSTER, THERE IS NO BABY CHICK! The hen lays an egg every day even with no rooster. She plops it down and walks away and doesn't give it another thought, BUT it is a tiny little package of amazing nutrients for us! What a gift! If their IS a rooster, the hen has to actually be "broody", or ready to sit for 3 weeks on her eggs. This process called incubation is what actually activates the chick to grow. So if there is a rooster but you gather the eggs every day, there will be no chick yet. Hope this clears it up because I cannot tell you how many times people have cussed me out at the farmers market for "killing baby chicks", or the man who one time tried to tell me that the hen lays an egg and goes off to die...ya can't even make this stuff up y'all!
An Gar Wow! Some people! đ
Wow. I learnt something new today. Something to tell those vegans when they jump down my throat for eating eggs.
Wait..
So chickens are hermaphrodites, if mating is optional!? đ±
@@umerpk4188 No, they're not. It's similar to a human female getting her period where the egg is released during ovulation.
Wow, I can't believe there's people out there that are that stupid. You have more restraint than I do, good luck, man.
Egg yolks have choline as well. Good for liver.
Yeah
Good point, thank you đđŻ
Choline is also extremely important for brain function, as much of the brain is made up of choline
Yes surprised it wasn't mentioned!
I have heard that choline in eggs can cause prostate cancer. Anyone else read this?
When us kids were sick and younger ( Iâm 61),my mother used to boil an egg, break the shell, put it in a cup with salt n pepper and a knob of butter. Toast n a cup of tea. I can still taste how good it was. Who knew the old ways were best!!!!
Yessir brother
Your ma was irish.
Conclusion: Eat the whole egg you guys.
I don't love to eat whites
elinarva golden be creative with them lol đ
@@bearbear4030 đđđđ
I can'tđ
well if you dont want to eat them you could use it for skin care, look up online uses for egg whites for skin care
Even the shells? ?
My lipid panel actually gets even better when I eat more eggs đł. Iâve historically have maintained a good healthy lipid panel on my labs. And I eat eggs with the yolk everyday đđŒ
Just passing this along to,
Hard boiled eggs are extremely good for diabetics ,
High in protein and low in sugars,
Not to mention that they are the perfect sized snack,
Good health everyone đ
So two as "snack appetizer" and 2 with your meal?
Rita LaFleur awesome đ,
Peace out and good health everyone,stay safe and keep warm,

I boil 6 eggs at a time and store it in the fridge to have with meals. Amazing at how quickly it fills you up.
Asta awesome!!;
Sounds just like me too;
I just love hard boiled eggs out of the fridge;
The perfect sized single portion serving ;
I donât typically salt my eggs;
However some of the peoples at work pour on the salt
@@interwebtubes Nah. Tastes so much better without salt!
Thanks again for being a wonderful teacher. It would of been nice to have you in school back when and Im 65 now. I always share your videos. God blessâ€đ
Shared this with a friend of mine. It always breaks my heart when I see people discarding the yolk. Thanks for this great video.
I don't know why most of peolpe not eat the yolks.

Great video. I'm eating carnivore. I eat 3 eggs every day I get so tired if people saying Ooh, you're gonna raise your cholesterol. I have been doing this for 5 yrs.. according to them I should have died by now !!!! DO TGE RESEARCH PEOPLE !!!! Eggs are a complete food, and loaded with nutrients
I'm glad you did this video. Dispelling the myth that yokes are no good. Just eat the whole egg!
I tried but the shell was hard to chew

Battling significant muscle wasting - having 2- 3 eggs per day - reversing body breakdown. Thankyou for egg research - plenty of nay sayers for my egg consumption.
You should never split up what nature put together
L H so we should eat the shells too?
@@badlandskid yes, the shells are full of calcium.
@@badlandskid Knock yourself out. The shell has calcium, you can dry them out in the oven then grind them into a powder. LOL!!! Again, you should never split up what nature put together
L H maybe we should just swallow them whole then?
@@badlandskid It is best to eat the whole egg. You might want to blend them and cook them first. Meaning dry out your shell and grinding into a powder then sprinkling the powder onto your cooked eggs.
Thanks Dr.Berg for shooting out this excellent content
I eat 4 eggs per day, have done for years and I feel great
Wow 4 eggs all of them at breakfast or when you eat them .??
elinarva golden I also eat 4 to 5 eggs everyday & Iâd eat them breakfast or in my last meal before bed

Good morning all, and dear Dr Berg,..great info, big hug and thanks!
*MAKE SURE THEY ARE PASTURE RAISED AND ORGANIC*
Sister C
I too buy them organic but not pasture raised. I buy my eggs at Costco. Not even the health food markets carry them (only organic). I wish too that I lived near a farm. Take what you can get đ„đ„đŁ
I buy my eggs at Costco as well. But the white shell ones. I used to get the brown eggs but a few times, I saw blood spots in them and was gross out.
@@mangog8277 This is what makes them more nature raised. It means the hens are happy ones with rooster on board!
@@mangog8277 thatâs the naturalness of the egg the white arenât even half as good pasture raised organic youâll even see a that the yolk đł is orange yellow rather than light yellow
@@rinifilipopoulos1617 not all organic foods are organic
it is a good thing i love to eat eggs.
I've learned again of this video!
Great content!
Thank you Doc Berg for a clearer explainations!
12 lbs down in 1 week with 1 1/2 lbs lean muscle gained. Doing one meal a day keto with 20 hour fast. Thank you! đ
One meal a day is it enough???
golden yes. You try to eat 1200-1400 cals.
I love doing OMAD. I've been doing it for four months I feel better, sleep better and have more energy. đ
@@ohmylordforgivemeandmypare232 yes, but most people work up to it by first picking a 6 to 8 hour window a day to eat. And then they gradually narrow the gap to maybe 2 hours. Being nutrition conscious is a must.
are you working out?
Thanks for the information Dr. All this while we were made to believe egg yolks were bad for health. Now it's the best source of nutrients.
4 pounds down in 5 days adding 4 yolks to 2 whole eggs every night with my dinner with OMAD. Thatâs the only extra fat I add to my diet. đ Iâm on board with your 30 day challenge... đđđđđđ
Sister C
OMAD is an abbreviation for One Meal A Day
Sister C rini is right, he gives daily tidbits throughout the challenge through text messages. Itâs amazing.
@@bearbear4030 Are your belly become smallest after beginning the challenge .
elinarva golden Iâm only 142 pounds now Iâm a flat tummy, I only had 10 pounds to go, I gained 5 pounds coming off an OMEAD, I Dropped it all, I have a few pounds left..đđ
Iâll be below goal by the time the challenge is over. I started the challenge to help me restart/reset my set point ...I started back at Keto 101...Iâm a keto Warrior...
@@bearbear4030
Wow great to hear
(I'm a flat tummy )
flat tummy it's meaning a perfect body
I wish to you all the best warrior !
I never comments on CZcams but you are good person doctor sharing so much knowledge god bless you
My first meal of the day is always Vital farms pasture eggs. Three raw wiped with grass fed cows milk, just enough to make the mix less slimy. I have a good size slice of raw goats milk cheese, with a Good thick smear of Kerry Gold grass fed butter on the cheese. I call this my brain meal.I actually feel light headed feeling from this mixture. So, I know it's a good thing.
Salted duck-egg yolk is the rage here in Singapore. Really... It's off the charts with the variety of snacks they created here recently. Crispy fish skin with egg yolk is my guilty pleasure!
Makcik Lawa ggrrr! Iâm having such a hard time finding ducks eggs. And I live in the country . Any suggestions?
@@FLAMENCODELACOSTA You can find them in supermarkets. The only duck eggs found here are usually fermented and covered in charcoal powder. You have to peel of the black charcoal dirt and then boil it.
Happy New Year
Nowadays Asian people crazy about salted egg yolk.. But what can i say, it really GOOD! i'm crazy for salted egg yolk prawns đđđ ..
Love crispy fish skin but never tried it with egg yolk
I was doing the opposite eating the yellow and not the white ..Now I have a all the egg meal every other day 6 to 8 L pasture raised grain free organic eggs on top of cauliflower rice mixed with bacon bits ..and not store bought bacon bits o ya and I start with 3 cans of sardines as an appetizer..I do this every other day on a OMAD plan with a 2 hour eating window and I don't want to hear about how expensive it is to eat good this meal cost less ten $10.00 every other day Jan 1st was 4 years on keto almost 2 years on OMAD with IF and I lean towards a more carnivore plan..Thanks Dr Berg for helping me find this life its so awesome..
Before I used to eat 8 egg whites and 2 whole eggs
Now I eat 8 whole eggs and 2 egg whites never felt better
I have made good gains with whole eggs
I was eating 6 eggs a day and my blood pressure and cholesterol shot up. When I reduced to 2 eggs and half a cup of egg whites, things came back to normal. I guess everyone really is different.
U just ate too much lol
Exercise is mandatory if you are taking egg in that amount
Who eats 6 eggs a day wtf xD
Rightly said. People are confused..it is very simple ..if you are taking 1-2 eggs a day then just eat whole. But if someone who excersize and eats 4-6 eggs..should avoid yolks ..can take -1-2 eggs with yolk but 80% egg white is better....
@@magnetman0 I still am working out. Back than I was training 5 days a week and cardio/rest on weekends. Now I train 4 days a week and do regular cardio. It's weird to think someone would eat that many eggs and not train at all.
Thank you so much Doctor for this video , you are helping a lot !
Love Your Incredible Content Dr,
So Well Spoken & On Point!
My Great Thanks đ
Thank you DR Berg for your insightful information it has truly help me turn my health around for the better God bless you and karen
this guy is so thorough
I was looking more for cooking advice, but I stayed anyways cause it was interesting lol
Thank you Dr bergđđ
I Love yolks but I don't love to eat whites
Thanks Dr.Berg for this information!
Same. The whites have a texture I just donât like.
The yolks are terrific though!
Great video Doc yet again.
*Please tell me if Eggs are bad for psoriasis?* đ
Great information. Thanks
As a recent subscriber, I just wanted to say thanks for your exceptional videos. Thoroughly informative, superbly well presented and information-rich - and in today's crazy world, backed up with references so we can #factcheck! Wonderful!
Which is healthier, boiled egg or fried egg ?
Am watching you from Morocco , you're the best
Perfect thanks Doc!
Thanks for the video! People need to understand that cholesterol intake does HARDLY correlate with blood cholesterol AND that an increase in total blood cholesterol does NOT cause heart diseases. Only when the LDL oxidized, then it becomes atherogenic.
So when the cholestrol oxidized, is that the point?
Thanks Dockie
Could you a video on Irish Sea Moss? I have been looking into it and have conflicting information. I wish to add it to my ketogenic nutrition.
Eggs also full of Choline !
yes Pasture is quite important and try to get it at the source, farm you know.
Eric always have great content and explained well. đ
Thank you
My apologies for off top, but I am confused a bit. I've started intermittent fasting. Doing it for a week now and absolutely love it. But I've heard that it should be done not every single day but somewhere 3-5 days a week in order not to slow down our basal metabolic rate and still have that strong response of the body on fasting. What do you think?
Very well explained
I just want to say that I love you Dr. Berg haha. Honestly, you are an absolute legend!!
Thank you very much Dr. Eric. I had removed my Uterus due to massive fibroid in 2017 and within 9 month i had a complication with my left ovary (expanded with fluids with 12cm in diameter) and get entangled with my intestines. Got them both ovaries removed with multiple surgery due to intestines rearrangement. After 1st operation (uterus removed), i start to develop GERD. And after 2nd operation my GERD become worst, and i went to HRT due to massive backlash after ovary removed. While on HRT, 1st prescription cause my limb become weak and i become unconscious 2x. The 2nd prescription (progynova), caused me to develop to pre-diabetic condition (6.2-6.7mmol/L), massive nerves issue at hand and legs, in the same time putting on weight and massive cellulite at thighs. I walked a lot. I seldom /never exercise but i walked a lot (>10000 steps/day). I stop HRT like a year ago, but i have been hit with warning flag for osteoporosis (low bone density, T-score spine -2.0 and hip -lowest for neck -1.0) during my annual full checkup and my thyroid (T3-4.9 ), LDL 4.5mmol/L), liver ALT(SGPT) elevated to 68 and GGT to 50 and finally the Vit D is insufficient - 68.
All these symptoms started after my Uterus and Ovary removed. Recently i had inflammation at knees and frequent water retention at feet and hand (swollen alike).
I am on Bio D3 800ui (morning x2), {neurobion B1,B6,B12) morning x1 - this help reduce my nerves pain}, and past 1 week + on Glucosamine 500mg x2 morning and x1 night and lastly concentrated fish pil with vit E X2 morning.
I didn't go for any medication for Thyroid as it's still not that high. I also do encounter sleepless night like 4 to 5 days..unable to fall sleep and sometimes i sleep throughout and after awake still sleepy.
Women who thinking to remove the ovary especially should think wise is it's really necessary. I am 42+ now but according to my check up, my body behaving like 52 years old.
I am trying to learn from Dr. Eric video here...i learned a lot. Life becoming frustrating and i am almost give up in my life but i am still hanging on because i have a son too look after.
Wow. Thank you so much sir.
thnx

What is the difference between a brown shelled egg vs a white shelled egg and what is the correct way of cooking them especially if you like them fried and or in an avocado egg salad so you will not lose the nutrients??
Hi Rita, the shell color doesn't really matter but the stronger the shell and the harder to crack, the healthier the egg (not always but generally).
As far as the best cooking method, I've made a really good video on this one but in short, frying the white and eating the yolk raw appears to be the healthiest. If you don't like this idea, soft-boiling is the 2nd best option, followed by hard-boiling. Hope this helped :)
God bless you Dr â„ïžâ„ïž
I love soft boiled eggs, when the yolk is still raw and the white is cooked. I have them almost everyday for breakfast with 2 tablespoons of butter. đ
Dip it in butter?
Hi Dr, Berg. Can you please tell me if thick Albumen has more protein or thin Albumen has more protein? is the thin Albumen just water? is there any scientific research to show this?

*How do you get rid of avidin from your body? I think pasturised egg whites caused my hair thinning!* Iâve lost 85lbs, and had been having about 500ml - 1L of pasturised egg whites per week, and 10 boiled eggs per week.

Is it true that egg whites contain albumin which is very difficult to digest and could possibly aggravate a gut issue? I've had acne all my life despite going keto, ditching all grains, and intermittent fasting. I've been 2 - 3 high quality whole boiled eggs every day for years. I just started eliminating the whites to see if this is what is causing my skin problem.
Never had split the the two, I love it whole
Thanks
You're welcome!
I go to you for everything
Thank you so very much for such Amazing information.

You're very welcome!
How about those that intolerance with egg yolks? Any suggestions?
The yoke is the liver's best friend.....I learnt that from you Doc! (In one of your old videos :))
because it has choline
I was wondering if organic egg whites from boiled eggs is safe to eat in large quantities say 12 boiled egg whites every other day. My refrigerator is broken so I have to eat 12 boiled egg whites immediately at a time if I buy eggs.
so helpful. thank you. just started working out, and my trainer said to only have egg whites
Triglycerides are Super High. Dr Berg, LOVE your info! Have a question though for you, or maybe others on here, but what about yolks vs just whites if my Triglycerides are literally 1point from the borderline of danger? Other cholesterol are a little high, but mostly just triglycerides. Recently been eating much more fiber, 1000mg fish oil/day-and Red rice yeast 2/day, avocados 2-3/week. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Dr. Berg, how bout those people who swear that eating high cholestrol food increase their cholestrol to the dangerous level, and they can feel it in their body? I think someone said to me they feel like numbness in their finger or something. Well maybe numbness is not quite right word, idk what proper word to decribe it. I wanna learn enough so that I can at least be a little helpful. Some people are afraid of yolk so much, they miss and waste all those amazing nutrients
Dr. Berg, I have 4-6 eggs every day for the past 20 years. They are the best
Started raising my own chickens and they recently began laying the satisfaction of raising them myself makes their eggs that much more delicious
