Eggs, chicken, whole, boiled

Whole boiled chicken eggs include both the white and the yolk. They mainly provide protein and fat, with only trace amounts of carbohydrate. Per 100g, they contain 14g of protein and 9.6g of fat, including 2.7g of saturated fat. They also provide vitamins and minerals, including vitamin D at 3.2µg per 100g.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports bones and muscles. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake, alongside other foods eaten throughout the day. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (12 samples from 3 egg distribution centres, including enriched cage, barn, free-range and organic). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
