The bottom line Overall, shorter and lower-heat cooking methods cause less cholesterol oxidation and help retain most of the egg’s nutrients. For this reason, poached and boiled (either hard or soft) eggs may be the healthiest to eat. These cooking methods also don’t add any unnecessary calories.

Does Cooking an Egg Reduce Its Protein? The way you prepare the egg has no effect on the amount of protein the egg originally contains, but it does have an effect on how much of the protein in the egg you absorb from the egg.

In and of themselves, scrambled eggs are a healthy dish. Eggs are high in protein as well as B vitamins and vitamin D; eggs also contain heart-healthy unsaturated fats. However, when butter, cream, cream cheese, or shredded cheese are added, the calories, cholesterol, and fat content increase.

Overall, eating eggs is perfectly safe, even if you’re eating up to 3 whole eggs per day. Given their range of nutrients and powerful health benefits, quality eggs may be among the healthiest foods on the planet.

What makes them the perfect food to consume on an empty stomach is the fact that they make you feel full longer. Studies have shown that when eggs are eaten in the morning, the total amount of daily calories consumed decreases and eggs also aid in fat reduction.

Boiled eggs are your best bet as they are devoid of any excess oil or additional fat or calories. A maximum of 2 eggs a day would suffice for an average adult – one whole and one egg white – best consumed during breakfast. Egg whites source you with quality protein.

Eggs are low in calories and contain only 78 calories along with the yolk. However, you can do away with the egg yolk if you want to lose some extra pounds fast. For a wholesome meal in the morning, you can include 2-4 eggs in your breakfast, which contain less than 240 calories.
