As it turns out, there are two big misconceptions when it comes to this particular debate. First, that raw eggs contain more protein than their cooked counterparts, and second, that consuming eggs raw offers more advantages overall. In both cases, the opposite may actually be true.
In general, one whole egg typically contains between 5 and 7 grams of protein (though the exact amount will vary based on the size of the egg).
