Quick and Easy Avocado Egg Salad Recipe

High-Protein Diets With Eggs​

One large egg equals 7.5 grams of protein, with a yolk more than the egg white.

However, the egg has more egg white, meaning the whites have more protein than the yolk in a large egg.

Either way, eggs are healthy and cheaper than meat and seafood protein sources.

Protein is essential to build healthy muscles and repair cells and tissues in the human body.

A protein-rich diet also helps people avoid snacking between meals, keeping the body satiated longer.
