Why do eggs have more calories if you scramble them than if you eat them raw?

Butter.
Cooking increases bioavailability
That's sort of the entire point

What if you don't scramble them with butter? I'm looking for something to add to my diet, and I was thinking eggs. I just want to make sure nothing changes if you scramble them, as everywhere online says they increase in calories, which doesn't make sense.

Then you have terrible taste.

>as everywhere online says they increase in calories,
Like where?
>>8724975
I have great taste, that is how I got fat in the first place.
>>8724972
>calories are bad
get some exercise.

Your pic confirms you for a weeb and therefore fucking brain dead.

three things could be affecting it:
1) they could be including an arbitrary amount of added fat in the recipe they use to calculate the calorie count
2) they could be factoring in the digestibility of nutrients in the egg, which will increase with cooking/heating
3) it could be down to the evaporation of water in the egg, which obviously means a gram of scrambled egg will have more calories than a gram of raw.
quite possibly it's a combination of all three things.
what numbers are you using btw?
I think the lie is that cooking breaks up some nutrients that wouldn't be absorbed otherwise.
That's it.
Calories are not a good measure anyway, as it includes any energy generated by combustion, and our body isn't a furnace. We don't even digest half the fat we eat.

This. Our guts aren't bomb calorimeters
It's whatever oil or fat you use to scramble it in. They add calories
A few extra calories from butter is not going to kill you
You probably don't (or didn't) eat enough veggies and lean meats
Besides, fat doesn't make you fat, even though it's high in calories per gram. You need to be avoiding pastas and grains.

who the fuck scrambles eggs with butter?
you're supposed to just add some milk, salt and pepper.

Oh boy
>>8724972
Because you can't digest raw egg whites properly. Raw eggs are a meme excuse when really the answer is "steroids" like every other time a big guy is asked what his secret is

heat = energy
calories = energy
