What makes egg so powerful?

One large egg is about 50 g and gives around 70 to 75 calories and 6 g of protein, so 100 g (the figure here) is about two eggs. Almost all the fat and vitamins A, D and B12 are in the yolk, while the white is nearly pure protein. Cooking by boiling or poaching adds no calories; frying adds whatever fat you cook with. Eggs are a near-complete protein, which is why they rank so well for satiety.
