Is it suitable for a 1-year-old child to eat eggs?

Patient's question:

My girl is one year old? Every day I steam one egg and eat only the yolk! Can she eat the egg white?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if the child does not have an allergy to eggs, they can eat one egg per day.
Eggs are rich in nutrients. The yolk is rich in iron, while the egg white is rich in protein, which promotes the growth and development of children. However, do not eat too many—just one per day is sufficient. Occasionally, you can eat one every other day, but be mindful of your intake of other dietary fibers to avoid constipation.
