how much fat is in a single egg yolk?

 

[atherjen]

in a large size egg...5 grams. but only 1.5g saturated. yolks are good for you!

 

[x~factor]

I thought it was 7g of fat (yolk) with 7g of protein (white).

 

[kvyd]

yeah right around 5,6,7 g

 

[Jodi]

Yolk = 5 G Fat & 3.5G Protein
White = 0G Fat and 3.5G Protein

about what ratio of egg whites:yolks do you recommend? ex- Say 5 white to 2 yolks? (cutting)

Whatever fat the box says I eat them whole now, but I dont look at macro breakdown too much, just protein and calories.

Depends on how much fat allowance is in your diet.
