    The color of egg yolk is dark and light, ranging from light yellow to orange yellow. The color of egg yolk is related to the pigments it contains. The main pigments in egg yolk are lutein, zeaxanthin, lutein, carotene and riboflavin. The color of egg yolk usually only indicates the amount of pigment. Some pigments such as lutein and carotene can be converted into vitamin A in the body, so under normal circumstances, eggs with darker yolks are slightly better in nutrition.
