My 3-year old can eat the yolks but the egg white gives her a violent skin reaction when i test it on her belly. So i'm not gonna find out what it does to her insides and i will say the white for the purpose of your question.

No part of the egg is "bad" for you. The yellow portion has more fat is all. You just have to eat a balanced diet in the right proportions to maintain good health. There are no "bad" foods, just bad eating habits unless of course you include processed foods that might have chemicals added to them or something like that.

It is a misconception that the yolk is bad for you because it contains "cholesterol." Not only is it false that consuming cholesterol (at least in moderation) raises cholesterol - your body produces less the more you eat, and more the less of it you eat - but the very concept that high cholesterol is bad for you - as a general rule - is utterly false. We know, in fact, that low cholesterol can INCREASE the risk of cancer and stroke....go figure.
The yolk also contains essential fatty acids like DHA, without which we can't live. The yolk has vitamin A, vitamin E, and many other essential nutrients not found in the white.

Neither is bad in moderation, both are bad in excess. The yolk or yellow part however does contain high saturated fat while the white is predominantly protein. The yolk does however contain things like riboflavin that are very important to eat and are quite difficult to find elsewhere in your diet.

I've seen Hulk Hogan on tv and he eats 24 eggs a day, but only the white. So i guess its probably the yellow thats bad. It all depends on how much you like Hulk Hogan though!

none of the egg is bad for you
the yolk, however, has a lot of cholesterol--but it's good to eat one a day. don't overdo it though--it can build up cholesterol in your system over time if you do more than one a day
the egg is one of nature's best and most nutritious foods
enjoy them =) egg whites you can eat guilt free

I hear that it is the white. Some people say you should limit the amount of eggs you eat in general -- I don't know just why.

Technically the yolk has more fat and cholesterol, but eggs are so healthy for you and full of protein, it outweighs the risks, IMO.
