Boiled egg vs omelette: Which one is more healthy?

Eggs are one of the best sources of protein and are often taken in breakfast. They contain a complete package of nutrition. 

One egg contains around 72 calories, 6 grams of protein, and 5 grams of healthy fats, including omega-3 fatty acids.

People like both boiled eggs and omelettes. But do you know which one provides more nutrition?

Eggs are rich in high-quality proteins, containing all the essential amino acids the body needs.

In a boiled egg, most of its nutrients are preserved, making it a convenient choice for a quick and healthy meal.

Omelettes are cooked with additional ingredients such as cheese, vegetables etc. Due to added ingredients, they can also be higher in calories and unhealthy fats.

Hence, the nutritional profile of an omelette can vary widely based on its ingredients.

A boiled egg retains most of its nutrients as it is cooked without additional ingredients. Hence, it is a healthier option.

Whereas, omelettes can also be higher in calories and saturated fats due to cooking oils and other high-calorie fillings.
