It turns out, eggs have a pretty negligible amount of carbs. Like, we're talking almost none. To be exact, a large egg typically contains about 0.6 grams of carbohydrates. That's less than a gram, folks!
Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, that's not a lot, but what does that even mean?" Well, to put it into perspective, a slice of bread has around 15 grams of carbs. So, we're talking about a tiny fraction of what you'd find in a normal carb-heavy food. It's like comparing apples and oranges, or in this case, eggs and bread.
The reason eggs are so low in carbs is because they're mainly made up of protein and fat. The protein is what gives eggs their structure and the fat is what gives them their flavor and texture. Carbs just aren't a big part of the equation, which is why eggs are often a popular choice for low-carb diets.
