Poop-o-meter
NOPE.
Consulting the colon…
Do eggs make you poop?
Nope. They won't plug you, either. Eggs have no fiber and nothing that pulls water into your gut, so they don't make you go. The binding reputation is mostly about what eggs replace on the plate.
Strength None
Fiber 0 g
Binding? not on its own
Did eggs make you go?
The meter says what should happen. Your bowels get a vote too.
Why it doesn't
Nothing in them to push things along
A large egg has no fiber, no caffeine and no sugar alcohols, the things that usually get a gut moving.
Not on the official "avoid" list
NIH's constipation advice names chips, fast food, meat and processed foods as low-fiber foods to limit. Eggs aren't on it.
The plate matters more
A breakfast of eggs and nothing else leaves out fiber. Adults need 22 to 34 g a day, so add toast, fruit or beans and eggs stop being a problem.
