Egg (raw) calories and nutrition facts
100 grams of egg (raw) contains 143 calories, with 12.6 g of protein, 0.7 g of carbohydrate and 9.5 g of fat. It provides 0.4 g of sugar per 100 g. Most of its calories come from fat.
These are the numbers for a raw egg — about 72 calories each — and they are slightly lower per 100 g than a boiled one, because boiling drives off a little water and concentrates what is left. Raw eggs are used in mayonnaise, tiramisu and protein shakes; if that is you, pasteurised eggs remove the salmonella question. Cooking also makes the protein easier for the body to absorb.
