Eggs are one of the most popular, widely consumed, and most beneficial foods in the world. They are what we call a complete, multifaceted meal, according to Healthline.
Some people prefer white eggs, while others prefer brown.

One large egg provides 6 to 7 grams of protein, all nine essential amino acids, vitamins A, D, E, and B12, as well as choline, zeaxanthin, and unsaturated fats.
