Dietician and nutritionist Nmami Agarwal says the “sunny side up” preparation of eggs is quite healthy.

In an Instagram post she writes, “Fun fact: Most nutrients in an egg are present in the yolk. Eating the egg white and yolk together in a whole egg provides the right balance of protein, fat, and calories.”
