eggs, is it true that the yolk contains half the protien and the white contains half the protien? or is it that the white contains the protien and the yolk contains the fat? also i have high colestrol, father has had by pass also uncle has high colestrol so think runs through family, so would u recommend i stay away from the yolk cuz i was told it is high in colestrol?

thankz

You'll find every one has a myth idea of this. But the vast majority of the public inc the well paid scientists will agree there isnt enough colestrol in eggs to cause you any worry.

The white is the protein mate.

Well the yellow (yolk) contains some of the unwanted fats so if your going to have eggs every day like i do then just have 1 or 2 yolks added in for taste. But was to your question you wont need to worry about colestrol mate

In terms of protein there is a simular amount contained both in the white and the yolk. The white is fat free, and the yolk contains fats and cholesterol. Unless you have health issues with your cholesterol a couple of egg yolks a day should be fine.
