I was at the canteen with two friends of mine during the break. We all had our breakfast. I had potato soup while they had rice porridge served with boiled egg. Then they started talking about the egg. One of them said that she preferred eating the white as it's cholesterol free, while the other one said she preferred the yolk as it's nutritious. I didn't care with their conversation till in the end they asked me to answer which one was healthier to eat, the yolk or the white? Well I said to them that both the yolk and the white are nutritious and important to the chick. What do you think? Which one is healthier to eat: the yolk or the white?

I think the yolk is more nutritious and the white less nutritious but it maybe true the white is cholesterol free. They say it's healthy to eat eggs everyday

@HAPPSINGH Are you sure? I think it should be an apple a day, not an egg a day.

Yes, that's also what I heard about the white. But for doing a diet it's better to have only the white.

They are both healthy, it just depends on what you are watching, calories or cholesterol. I prefer the whites.

Yes, agree on that. And I heard the yolk contains so much choleterol in it.

I always heard the egg white was better. But i think in moderation the whole egg is Ok. Its high in cholestrol but only 70 calories for a regular sized egg!

Yolk is healthier because it is more nutritious.

Yes, the white is also nutritious, plus it is cholesterol free.
