High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
GLYCEMIC INDEX
GLYCEMIC LOAD
Accounts for portion size — a more realistic measure than GI alone.
To burn the 196 calories in 100 g:

Times are calculated with the MET equation for a 70 kg adult. Actual burn varies with your weight, age and pace.

Use a well-heated pan over medium heat and coat it with only a thin layer of oil. Avoid overcooking, and briefly resting the egg on paper towel can remove excess surface oil.
Cooking does not remove the protein; it changes its structure and generally makes it easier to digest. Very high heat or burning can, however, reduce eating quality and affect some heat-sensitive vitamins.
An oil with a suitable cooking temperature and a mild flavour is usually the most versatile choice. If the oil is smoking, lower the heat and replace it, as overheated oil can produce an unpleasant flavour.
It can fit well into a balanced post-workout meal because it provides protein. Right before exercise, the added oil may feel heavy for some people, so leave enough time based on your own digestion.
Eating it at night is not inherently harmful. However, people prone to reflux or indigestion may find a fried egg uncomfortable close to bedtime, especially when it is cooked with plenty of oil.
Refrigerate it promptly in a covered container rather than leaving it at room temperature. It is generally best eaten within 3 to 4 days; discard it if it develops an off smell, colour, or texture.
They can be frozen, but the white often becomes tough or rubbery after thawing. Freshly cooked eggs have the best texture; if frozen, keep them in an airtight container and reheat thoroughly.
Not necessarily. The response to dietary cholesterol varies between individuals, and overall eating patterns, saturated fat intake, and health status matter too; anyone managing high cholesterol or cardiovascular disease should seek personalised advice.
Vegetables such as spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, or peppers make a satisfying pairing, while whole-grain toast can add a carbohydrate source. This turns the egg into a more varied meal rather than relying on it alone.
No. Heating changes egg proteins but does not reliably prevent allergic reactions, and people with an egg allergy should avoid it unless a qualified allergy specialist has advised otherwise.
