Let's take a few facts into consideration on this note.

Egg yolks, besides having a relatively good amount of protein, also contain heart-healthy unsaturated fat, including omega-3 fats.

Not just this, egg yolks are also enriched with many good-for-you nutrients, such as RIBOFLAVIN (needed for growth and overall good health), VITAMIN-D (extremely important for maintaining healthy bones), and VITAMIN B-12 (vital role in helping your body produce red blood cells).

In addition to this, the nutritive value of egg yolk helps in

Keeping good brain health.

Promoting weight loss by fulfilling Vitamin D deficiency.

Keeping heart in good condition.

Reducing eye disease risk.

WHEREAS,

Egg whites do have a considerable amount of protein but are low in everything else.
