Eggs are a great part of a healthy diet, whether your trying to lose weight or build muscle. They are rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin B, especially Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Vitamin E and Vitamin K and as well as a good source of Calcium, Iron, Iodine, Phosphorus and Zinc. Most of the protein is in the egg white (albumin), whilst most of the calories and nearly all the fat are in the egg yolk.
