how many grams of protein in a jumbo egg white?

[ascendant]

i've heard some people say as little as 4g and as much as 6g. however, at 6g, that would mean there's only 2g of protein in the yolk, which doesn't seem accurate to me. i'm thinking it's probably 4-5g on average, but if anyone knows for sure, please let me know. thanks.

I too would like to know the answer

for a large egg you are looking at an average of 6.7g of protein total, 4g in the white and 2.7g in the yolk.

FYI you can use this website for stuff like this in the future...

thanks man. i actually have another site i usually use for this kind of info, but my site (just as yours) doesn't have the nutritional info on the jumbo egg whites. i'm going to assume it's probably about 5g.
