The nutritional value- the content of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the product.

Nutritional value of a food product- a set of properties of a food product, in the presence of which the physiological needs of a person in the necessary substances and energy are satisfied.

vitamins, organic substances needed in small amounts in the diet of both humans and most vertebrates. The synthesis of vitamins is usually carried out by plants, not animals. The daily human need for vitamins is only a few milligrams or micrograms. Unlike inorganic substances, vitamins are destroyed by strong heating. Many vitamins are unstable and "lost" during cooking or food processing.

Eggs are a fairly common item in our refrigerator. It is easy to prepare and quite nutritious, besides easily accessible. We can call it an indispensable product in our diet, because almost no pastries can do without it. We use them in different form: cheese, boiled, fried.

And you and I, girls, should know how much and what we use. Therefore, it is important to know the calorie content of even this product if we monitor our diet.

I read that eggs are incompatible with the diet, because they contain a sufficient amount of fat, but did you know that one egg contains only 50 kcal!

So, today we will talk about them in more detail, what benefits they bring in themselves, and what harm.

How many calories?

First of all, the calorie content of this product depends on its size.

One hundred grams of a chicken egg contains approximately 160 kcal. One piece usually weighs from forty to seventy grams. From here it is easy to calculate what the calorie content of chicken eggs is. However, the calorie content is also affected by the way it is cooked.

Calorie in boiled form

Raw eggs are most beneficial, but there is no guarantee that they are free of salmonellosis. Therefore, it is better to cook this product.

Everyone knows that an egg consists of protein and yolk. The calorie content of each part is different. The largest number calories are contained in the yolk, and in the protein they are three times less. Surprisingly, there are as many kilocalories in a boiled egg as in a raw one.

That is, it will contain 70 kcal.

This is a great option for breakfast, and besides, scientists have proven that the cholesterol that they have is harmless.

What is the calorie content of protein?

The protein of a boiled chicken egg has a low calorie content and is only 17 kcal, which is about a quarter of the total calorie content.

It is also important that the protein contains practically no fats and contains all the amino acids necessary for the human body, as well as B vitamins.

What is the calorie content of the yolk?

The calorie content of the yolk is about 50 - 55 Kcal. It contains fats, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins A, E, group B and trace elements: manganese, iron, calcium, zinc and others.

It also contains cholesterol, which is balanced by lecithin, which makes it safe. It is not recommended to consume the yolk at the same time as other fats of animal origin.

What is the calorie content of a hard boiled egg?

Many are sure that the calorie content of 1 boiled egg, as well as raw, is 70 kcal, but this is not so. A hard-boiled egg has the least calories, it contains only 50 kcal. Such a product can be stored for quite a long time, up to ten days.

A boiled egg will be an excellent option for those who are struggling with extra pounds.

Soft-boiled eggs calories

Soft-boiled eggs do not lose their usefulness. They contain 70 kcal. Such a product is completely digested in a couple of hours.

The longer it cooks, the worse it will digest. And in order to get soft-boiled eggs, they need to be boiled for only 3-5 minutes. A properly cooked product is distinguished by a semi-liquid yolk, it should only be served hot.

What if it's fried?

For many, the usual breakfast in the morning is scrambled eggs, so the issue of calorie content is very relevant. Calorie content of one fried egg, cooked by chemical means without oil, is approximately 110 calories. But many people fry them in oil, which contains fats, which increases their calorie content.

We fry in oil

The number of calories in such a product can exceed 170 kcal, which is 2 to 3 times more than the calorie content of a boiled egg. Due to such a high calorie content, they, as a rule, are not included in therapeutic nutrition systems and diets for weight loss. If you do not want to give up high-calorie scrambled eggs from 2 eggs, then you can try to reduce the nutritional value of this dish.

To do this, it is necessary to fry only proteins, since the amount of carbohydrates in them is negligible, and there is no fat at all.

What is the calorie content of a 2 egg omelet?

One of the most common breakfast foods is scrambled eggs.

It is very easy to prepare.

It is necessary to beat the eggs with milk, and pour the resulting mass into a pan, into which you first pour a little sunflower oil.

The calorie content of an omelet from 2 eggs will be 118 Kcal, and if it is prepared from proteins alone, then the calorie content will decrease to 85 Kcal.

Tomatoes, cheese and other products are often added to an omelette, which increases its calorie content. For example, 100 g of an omelette with tomatoes and cheese can reach 342 kcal. Breakfast in the form of an omelette is very useful. It has an optimal energy value, a charge of tone for the whole morning.

Beneficial features

• The substances contained in the egg protect the optic nerve, preventing the formation of cataracts.
• They also contain substances useful for hematopoiesis.
• The lecithin contained in the yolk helps to strengthen memory and increases mental performance.
• Stimulate the immune system and promote weight loss.
• Helps maintain healthy teeth and bones.
• They contain the vitamin of beauty and youth - vitamin E.

Chicken eggs are very useful, and it is better to use them boiled, because with such processing they contain the least amount of calories and are better absorbed.

But, of course, there are a fairly large number of products that have a lower calorie content than a boiled egg.

However, before you carefully count calories, you need to remember about its valuable and beneficial properties. Even more vitamins are found in quail eggs, the calorie content of which, however, is much higher than that of chicken eggs (about 150 Kcal).

Egg categories are defined as follows

• The highest category (B) - 75 g or more,
• Selected egg (O) - from 65 to 74.9 g,
• The first category (1) - from 55 to 64.9 g,
• The second category (2) - from 45 to 54.9 g,
• The third category (3) - from 35 to 44.9 g.

The highest category is found on sale quite rarely, the third - even less often. All other names of eggs: rejuvenating, rustic, this is about nothing - a marketing ploy, supposedly they have more selenium and other useful elements. But no one has yet conducted clinical trials, the effect of such eggs on human rejuvenation or health. And it is important for us to know only the composition of BJU (proteins, fats and carbohydrates) and calorie content.

I buy a package, inspect it, the composition of the product per 100 g of weight is written on the package. On the package with eggs, the composition is written: protein 12.7 g, fat 11.5 g, carbohydrates 0.7 g, calorie content 157 kcal. Poultry farms analyze their products, and I hope that these data can be trusted.

All eggs appear to be the same size, but this is only at first glance.

I weigh, the smallest egg weighs 66 g, the largest 72 g - and if you look closely, you can see that it is larger. I choose these two eggs from the whole package and I will calculate the average values ​​​​from them.

Carefully break and separate the yolks from the whites. I weigh on electronic scales(error + - 1 g).

The shell weighs 8 g for an egg, which is 72 g, for the rest of the eggs, which are 66-68 g each, the shell weighs 7-8 g. The yolks weigh 18-20 g. Proteins average 42-43 g.

Now let's turn to the nutritional value of chicken eggs. On different sites and nutrition calculators, the information is contradictory. I am trying to find something that sheds light on this confusion and compare it with institute textbooks, for example, on the commodity science of food products (Kazantseva N.S.). So, according to theory, chicken egg protein contains in its composition on average: water 80-85%, proteins 12-13%, carbohydrates about 0.7%, minerals 0.6%, fat 0.3%.

I remember what was written on the packaging of my specific eggs.

100 g of the edible part of the egg contains 12.7 g of protein, then

64g egg without shell (72g-8g) - 8.13g protein,

59g eggs without shell (66g-7g) - 7.5 g protein. The average amount of protein is 7.8 g per egg.

Checking the theory: Egg whites are about 13% protein, which means there are about 5.6 g of proteins in 43 g of protein in my egg. In a smaller egg, 42g of protein contains approximately 5.4g of proteins. The average is 5.5 g of protein. This is the figure I will write down in my nutrition calculator. By the way, 0.7% protein carbohydrates are 0.3 g, the amount of fat in the protein is 0.13 g, and the calorie content is 25 kcal.

We can boil or fry this egg, and in any form it will contain all the same 5.5 g of protein and 0.3 carbohydrates. But if we fry it in oil, the BJU changes.

Now the yolks. The chemical composition of the yolk is more vague: according to some data, the yolk contains about 31.8% fat, 16% protein, 0.2% carbohydrates, 1.1% minerals, and 50% water.

According to others - up to 33% fat, if you refer to Wikipedia, which refers to data from the USDA National Nutrient Database, so chicken yolks weighing 17 g contain 4.51 g of fat - this is 26.5% - very little, some are not the same chickens in America, not like ours!

In general, I am again guided by the nutritional value declared on the packaging of those eggs that I bought. It says 11.5 g per 100 g of egg weight. If you remember, fats are contained not only in the yolk, but in the yolk and protein, there is nothing in the shell except calcium salts.

• For 100 g of the edible part of the egg, there are 11.5 g of fat, then
• 64 g of egg without shell accounts for 7.36 g of fat.
• For 59 g of egg without shell, 6.7 g of fat. The average is 7 grams of fat per egg.

How to distribute it all between protein and yolk? It's simple here: all the data on the amount of fat in egg white, according to different sources, are approximately the same - 0.3% fat. I have already calculated that this is 0.13 g of fat. Then the yolk accounts for an average of 7-0.13=6.87 g of fat.

16% of the protein from the total mass of the yolk is on average 3g (I count between eggs weighing 72 and 66g). A 0.2% carbohydrates 0.038 g. Average calorie content 74.3 kcal.

By the way, at the expense of caloric content, everywhere they write, then the yolk has it three times higher than that of the protein. Let's compare 25 kcal and 74.3 kcal - the difference is 2.9 times, so that's right!

I sum up, according to my calculations, the nutritional value of table eggs of the selected category.

	Weight, g	Proteins, g	Fats, g	Carbohydrates, g	kcal
Nutritional value of the product	100	12,7	11,5	0,7	157
Whole egg C0	59-62	7,8	7	0,34	99
Protein 1 egg C0	42-43	5,5	0,13	0,3	25
Yolk of 1 egg С0	18-20	3	6,87	0,038	74,3

What do you want to say in the end. Of course, the difference in the chemical composition of chicken eggs is sometimes different. You can take any to calculate your diet - averaged from various nutrition calculator sites, or from a package of purchased eggs. In fact, it is worth believing rather the information that is written on the package with eggs. The fact is that the chemical composition of eggs depends on the breed of chickens, on their age, and other factors that are individual at each poultry farm.

There is no fat in the protein of a chicken egg, it is 90% water, and proteins make up only 10%. Of particular value is that there is no cholesterol at all.

One hundred grams of protein contains 44 kcal, and the protein of one egg contains 18 kilocalories.

It also contains useful enzymes, glucose, vitamins, especially group B. Protein is a source of niacin that nourishes the brain. It also contains memory-enhancing choline. It also removes dangerous poisons from the liver.

Thanks to protein, the body receives amino acids that it cannot synthesize, as well as carbohydrates, protein, etc. This product is the standard of nutritional value due to complete assimilation.

Egg white used very widely:

• as an ingredient is included in the recipe for some soups and many salads;
• in cooking - for the manufacture of creams and dough;
• consumed raw or after various heat treatments;
• used for making cosmetics for hair and body care.

Is it healthy to eat eggs without yolk?

Nutritionists recommend eating only proteins in eggs, and neglect the yolks because the latter contains up to five grams of fat. Of course, if you eat an omelet from two eggs in a day, then there is nothing wrong with that. Another thing is if 10 pieces are “swept away” in the diet per day - in this case, the body receives as much as 100 grams of unwanted fat.

The yolk contains almost 0.2 grams of cholesterol.

This substance is necessary for the human body, but it synthesizes it itself and additional "help" from the outside is not required.

More recently, bodybuilders who consumed a lot of eggs for the sake of building muscle mass, the yolk was thrown away, eating only proteins.

But, as scientists have shown, they you need just a lot of cholesterol to restore muscle cells. They conducted experiments that showed that eggs should be eaten whole, since it is in this case that muscle growth is stimulated and strength increases.

The harm of cholesterol, according to experts, is greatly exaggerated., since cholesterol plaques are deposited on the walls of blood vessels from the overproduction of this substance by the liver from taking a large number fats.

Chicken egg is a unique food product that is digested human body almost 100%. Eggs are rich in protein, fats and carbohydrates, contain almost all the vitamins and minerals necessary for our body.

How useful is the product?

• niacin (necessary for the synthesis of sex hormones and normal blood circulation in the brain);
• choline (responsible for the process of removing poisons from the liver, improves memory);
• vitamin K (takes part in the processes of blood clotting);
• folic acid (responsible for the correct formation of the neural tube of the fetus, prevents the development of congenital malformations in the baby);
• animal protein (without it, the formation and regeneration of cells and tissues of the human body is impossible).

In addition, a chicken egg contains vitamin A, vitamin E, B vitamins, and in terms of vitamin D content, it is second only to fish oil.

Nutritional value of chicken egg

Supporters proper nutrition and admirers of various diets, in addition to the benefits of the product in question, may be interested in questions related to its nutritional value: what is the calorie content of protein and yolk? What part of the product should be preferred during the diet - protein or yolk? How many calories are in boiled and fried protein?

It is difficult to name the exact calorie content of an egg, since it directly depends on the size of the product. The average calorie values ​​are as follows:

• a small chicken egg - up to 70 kilocalories;
• average chicken egg - up to 80 kilocalories;
• large chicken egg - over 80 kilocalories.

At the same time, the calorie content of the protein is much lower in comparison with the yolk.

Egg yolk, in addition to proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and other useful substances, contains fats and cholesterol. And although the fats contained in the product are mostly polyunsaturated, which means they will not harm the human body, the very presence of fats in the yolk makes it high-calorie. The average calorie content of one chicken yolk fluctuates between 55-60 kilocalories. This should be considered by those who are on a diet.

In addition, people with increased level cholesterol in the blood should be consumed egg yolk in limited quantities. Since one yolk contains up to 230 mg of cholesterol.

The calorie content of protein is much lower, which is why it is this part of the egg that is included in numerous diets. Let's consider in more detail.

How many calories are in protein?

Before answering this question, let's consider what chicken protein consists of. It turns out that 80% to 85% of egg white is just water. Fats in barley protein is not more than 0.5-1% of its composition. The share of proteins accounts for 12.5-14%, the share of carbohydrates - up to 1%. It is this composition that explains the low calorie content of egg protein.

Protein accounts for up to a quarter of calories from the total calorie content of the product. As a rule, the protein of one egg contains from 15 to 20 kilocalories.

Possessing a low calorie content, egg protein is not without a lot of useful properties. It contains B vitamins, enzymes (dipepsidase, protease, diastase) and amino acids necessary to maintain the normal functioning of the human body.

Heat treatment - calorie content of boiled protein and fried protein

It is no secret that the calorie content of a dish largely depends on the method of its preparation.

In order to preserve all the beneficial properties of egg white and at the same time not increase its calorie content, boiling is considered the optimal heat treatment of this product. The calorie content of boiled egg white is about 40-44 kilocalories per 100 grams of the finished product.

The calorie content of fried egg white will be higher due to the fact that additional fats are used during the frying process. And if you fry the whole egg, then the calorie content of the dish reaches 360 kilocalories per 100 grams of the product.

Eggs are an indispensable product in the human diet. Any hostess knows: a lot of everyday and festive dishes prepared with eggs. A tender omelette for breakfast is healthy and tasty dish which does not take much time to prepare. If you monitor your diet and strive to ensure that your family's diet is healthy, you need to know everything about the nutritional and energy value of eggs.

raw egg

Depends on its weight and cooking method. So, 100 g of the product (raw) contains 158 calories. As a rule, one chicken weighs 40 - 70 g. That is, the calorie content of one raw egg- 63 - 110 kcal. If we are talking about quail, which are about five times smaller than chicken. Their raw calorie content is 168 kcal per 100 g. One quail egg weighs 10 - 13 g. Accordingly, one quail egg - 17 - 22 kcal.

Boiled

If you are on a diet, then the way the product is prepared is of fundamental importance. For example, the famous Maggi diet involves the consumption of large amounts of boiled eggs. So, the calorie content of soft-boiled and hard-boiled eggs does not differ from raw - 63 - 110 calories. However, it is important to remember that the energy value of protein and yolk are different.

Squirrel

The egg white contains water (85%), proteins (12.7%), fat (0.3%), carbohydrates (0.7%). There are 50 calories in 100 g of egg white. In chicken of average weight (60 g) - 33 g of protein, and this is only 15-18 kcal. So, a boiled egg without yolk is an indispensable low-calorie ingredient. diet meals(the calorie content of the protein of raw and boiled eggs is the same). For example, you can add it to fresh vegetable salads (Beijing cabbage + cucumbers + tomatoes + egg white).

Yolk

Egg yolk contains three times more calories than protein: 358 kcal per 100 g of yolk. The yolk of a chicken egg contains 11.5% fat and about 210 mg of cholesterol. The weight of the yolk is 18 g. It contains 64.5 calories.

The nutritional value

AT chicken egg contains 12.7 g of proteins, 10.9 g of fat and 0.7 g of carbohydrates (per 100 g of product). In a hard-boiled weighing about 60 g, the amount of proteins, fats and carbohydrates is approximately as follows: proteins - 7.8 g, fats - 7.2 g, carbohydrates - 0.6 g. They contain 12 vitamins:

1. Vitamin A- is necessary for the formation of teeth and the skeletal system, has a beneficial effect on vision, stimulates fat metabolism and the growth of new cells, slows down the aging process, prevents inflammation and diseases of the cardiovascular system.
2. AT 6- accelerates metabolism, relieves excitation in the central nervous system, provides energy from carbohydrates, creates the necessary conditions for the synthesis of hemoglobin, participates in the synthesis of insulin.
3. AT 12- promotes the development of red blood cells, stimulates metabolism, fat metabolism in liver tissues, lowers cholesterol levels.
4. E- is an antioxidant, improves the transport of oxygen to the tissues, prevents the formation of blood clots, improves the nutrition of the skin and mucous membranes.
5. D- ensures the normal development of bones and teeth, enhances the immune system, stimulates the functioning of the thyroid gland.
6. Folic acid- participates in the synthesis of DNA, ensures the normal formation of immunity, stimulates the work of the gastrointestinal tract.
7. Riboflavin- necessary for the formation of hormones and red blood cells, protects the retina from exposure ultraviolet rays, is involved in the breakdown of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, provides tissue renewal.
8. Niacin- participates in redox processes, in tissue respiration, carbohydrate and protein metabolism, stimulates the secretion of gastric juice.
9. Thiamine- participates in the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, stimulates the work of the cardiovascular, nervous and digestive systems.
10. Choline- participates in fat and cholesterol metabolism, ensures the normal functioning of the nervous system, destroys cholesterol plaques on the walls of blood vessels, lowers blood sugar levels.
11. Biotin- participates in the synthesis of hemoglobin and in the processing of glucose, regulates blood sugar levels, promotes fat burning in the body, and normalizes the activity of the sebaceous glands.
12. pantothenic acid- participates in the formation of antibodies, prevents inflammatory processes, promotes fat burning.

Chicken eggs contain 96% minerals:

• Calcium
• Phosphorus
• Iron
• Cobalt

How to calculate the calorie content of an egg?

The total mass is 56% protein, 32% yolk and 12% shell. To calculate the exact calorie content boiled egg- boil it, then lower it for 5 minutes in cold water(this will help to easily separate the shell without damaging the protein) and weigh on a kitchen scale. You can use various online calculators or smartphone calorie counters. If you are on a restricted diet egg yolk, remove the yolk and weigh only the albumen.

How many eggs can you eat?

After lengthy discussions on the benefits and harms of eggs, experts from various fields of science agreed that moderate consumption does not cause any harm to humans. But the absence of them in the diet can seriously affect the state of health. After all, it is a storehouse of useful substances that are necessary for a person of any age. An exception is individual contraindications (for example, allergies).

• People with excess cholesterol in the blood can consume no more than three eggs per week.
• People who have normal blood cholesterol levels can eat one egg a day, or 5-7 eggs a week. It is not recommended to exceed this rate, as they are also found in other products (for example, in pastries or cutlets).
• If the child does not have allergies, then you can give him eggs, starting from the age of 8-12 months. You should start with one yolk per week. It is forbidden to give protein, as it can cause diathesis in a child.
• At the age of 1 - 1.5 years, the child can be given one per week.
• Children aged 2-3 years can eat no more than three eggs per week.
• From 4 to 6 years - no more than five per week.

Calorie content of dishes

Making an omelette, scrambled eggs or egg croutons for breakfast for the whole family is easy and fast, almost everyone can do it. In addition, such food is very nutritious.

Scrambled eggs

You can cook diet scrambled eggs in an oil-free ceramic-coated pan or in the oven. Then you should only consider the calorie content of eggs and seasonings if you add them. If you are used to cooking a dish in oil, you must also take into account its energy value. The calorie content of scrambled eggs depends on the oil. On average, 100 g of scrambled eggs cooked in vegetable oil contains 240 kcal.

Two egg omelette

An omelette is a dish made from eggs and milk. It is traditionally fried in sunflower oil, but you can cook it in the oven or in the microwave. Then adding oil is not necessary. Important aspect- milk. The fatter the milk, the more calories in the omelet. For example, if for cooking you take 2 eggs of 60 g and 100 ml of 2.5% fat milk, the calorie content of which is 52 calories, you will get an omelet with about 210 calories. You can significantly reduce it if you prepare it from proteins. Then its calorie content will be 90 - 100 kcal. If you like hearty omelettes with tomatoes, cheese and bacon, you need to consider the value of these products depending on their quantity in the dish.

Egg croutons
