Brief Answer:
It is good.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX

Thanks for posting your query.

You can eat boiled egg including yolk, there is no problem with that.

The white of the egg contains proteins and the yolk contains fats and other organic molecules.

We advice people with high cholesterol levels to limit consumption of yolk because it is rich in cholesterol, but in normal people it will not cause any problem.

Hope this answers your question, please feel free to write back if you have any more questions.

Wishing you good health.

Regards.
