Myth #2: Egg whites are better for your health than egg yolks

You probably have at least one person in your life who thinks that egg whites are better for your health than egg yolks. This myth appeared when people associated egg yolks consumption with cholesterol. Well, it turned out to be just a myth.

In fact, egg yolks contain various vitamins and minerals that most foods don’t have (selenium and choline). On top of that, egg yolks also pack vitamins A, B6, D, E, B12, and K. Another thing that proves quite the opposite is that egg whites don’t even have half of what egg yolks offer.

Plus, health pros say that eating whole eggs may actually raise good cholesterol levels, ultimately benefiting your heart.
