Good to Know

At 0.4 g net carbs each, a single large egg gives you 6.3 g protein and 5 g fat for 72 calories, so two or three make an easy breakfast that stays well under any daily carb budget. Pasture-raised brands like Vital Farms or Happy Egg cost more but taste richer than standard grocery eggs, though the macros stay the same either way. Trouble shows up only when eggs get dressed for company: a fast-food breakfast sandwich on a biscuit, a slice of quiche with a flour crust, or scrambles thickened with pancake batter can quietly push the carbs up.
