Yolk. The yolk, or yellow portion, of an egg makes up about 34% of the liquid weight of the egg. It contains all of the fat in the egg and a little less than half of the protein. The yolk of a large egg contains about 55 calories. With the exception of niacin and riboflavin, the yolk contains a higher proportion of the eggâs vitamins than the white, including vitamins B6 and B 12, folic acid, pantothenic acid and thiamin. All of the eggâs vitamins A, D, E and K are in the yolk. Egg yolks are one of the few foods naturally containing vitamin D. The yolk also contains more calcium, copper, iron, manganese, phosphorus, selenium and zinc than the white.
