Are Eggs Keto Friendly?

Yes, eggs are keto-friendly! They are very low in carbs and a great source of healthy fats. The data on the exact carb count varies slightly in the USDA database – one large whole egg (50 grams) has between 0.36-0.48 grams of carbs [*, *]. Since eggs contain no fiber, net carbs are also the same.
