Eggs are considered to be one of the most nutritious foods one can eat. In a recent video posted on his TikTok, social media sensation Fernando Torraca, better known as The King of Diet, claimed he eats 100 eggs every day.
From the early days of bodybuilding, eggs have been a staple in every competitor’s diet. The wholesome food is so rich in nutrients that you can live off eating just eggs and still be healthy. Although they are high in cholesterol levels, it is the “good cholesterol” that they possess. Vince Gironda, popularly known as the “Iron Guru,” encouraged a diet of eating 36 eggs per day. He even claimed it was better to eat that many eggs over running a steroid cycle.
There has been a surge in fitness influencers following wild diets to attain fame. Weam Brieche had previously shared a video of him taking a bite out of the brain of a cow or calf and pounding it down with six uncooked eggs raw. Brieche likes the primal nature of the diet, much like Liver King, who promotes an ancestral way of living.
‘The King of Diet’ has revealed why he likes to eat 100 eggs everyday
In a recent video uploaded on his TikTok, The King of Diet claimed that he consumes 100 eggs daily.
“They say Roids but they don’t see my struggles,” he added. “It’s not easy (to) eat 100 eggs daily.”
The clip has amassed about 115,000 views with 2,770 likes. Torraca’s meal prep appeared to be a challenging task. He separated the yolk from the eggs and only wanted the whites.

While he has shared numerous videos suggesting that he eats 100 eggs a day, he has never uploaded a video where he is eating all of them. His clips are generally accompanied by motivational speeches highlighting the dedication it takes to be a bodybuilder.
In another video posted on his YouTube account, The King of Diet revealed why he eats 100 eggs a day.
Despite allegedly consuming 100-or-so egg whites a day, Torraca claims he only consumes two egg yolks in his diet, as it is all the fat he needs. In the video, he discusses why he only eats eggs and not other protein-rich foods like dairy or poultry.
“I eat egg whites, no whole eggs…only the egg whites. If I eat the whole egg with all the yolks, I’m going to get deep diarrhea alright? I eat eggs because when I eat chicken I feel bloated, all right?
When I have gas, my belly looks like (I’m) 6 months pregnant. I don’t like it.” Because it’s too strong,” he said. “Instead, I eat some chicken, tuna, or any fish whatever.
“I don’t eat red meat everyday because I notice I get bloated. The next day, I’m so bloated. The eggs take me like a 30, 40 minutes, 1 hour to digest good, it’s gone. Fish takes me like three hours, three hours and a half to feel the good digest to move onto the next meal. The red meat takes me like 24 hours to feel good.”
The average small egg has about 54 calories and 4.8g protein while an extra-large egg contains about 80 calories and 7g protein.

Fernando Torraca had previously posted videos on his Instagram making the same claim. In one of those videos, The King of Diet was seen purchasing 400 eggs writing that they would last him only four days.

People like this guy give fitness and bodybuilding a bad name. He’s not interested in anything but scoring likes. He’s not teaching or educating or inspiring – he’s just a pretty boy who lucked out with genetics and takes a lot of gear.
Fitness influencers aren’t interested in helping others achieve their goals. They’re just fame-grabbing whores. They’ll do anything to grab some undeserved fame.
He can take his 100 eggs and shove them where the sun doesn’t shine. King of Diet? King of idiots more like!
No steroids my ***… and that’s not an assumption based on his appearance, it’s based purely in science. I also eat 6 raw egg whites and 2 yolks every morning, not 100 that would be a complete waste. Reason being is because our bodies can only process about 30 grams of protein per hour depending on the type of protein (ie: whey protein in synthesized much faster that casein [milk] protein). Anything more than 30 grams in an hour, you end up shitting out or breaking down into simple carbs and shuttled into fat cells. There is a way to increase your protein synthesis to more than 30 grams an hour, it’s called ANABOLIC STEROIDS. Testosterone and most DHT (dihydrotestosterone) derivatives like trenbolone, Winstrol, ect, allow your body to synthesize way more protein for anabolism than it would normally, and also pulls the glycogen from your bloodstream directly into your muscles. It’s one thing to take gear to gain a competitive edge in your fitness goals, I can understand that, it is something entirely different to do it and then go around trying to claim you did it naturally and just put in more time and dedication than other people. That is beyond pathetic, and also like the other person commented, he is not trying to help people get in shape or be of assistance in any way he is just a self obsessed internet whore for likes and temporary attention from strangers.
They say the internet is obsessed with figuring out if guys are natty or not. That’s not true. We only speak about it when we get clowns like this that actively try to trick people into thinking this is achievable through hard work and dedication. NO ONE can build this much muscle and still maintain such a low body fat percentage. Young men NEED to know what is attainable and what is NOT attainable through diet and exercise.
100 eggs, all that pissed out nitrogen, basically a 100 chickens work wasted, what a tosser.
100 eggs is 6000-8000 calories depending on egg size. Assuming he eats nothing else, this dumb fuck is most definitely not maintaining his physique with a 3-5k surplus lmao. I love eggs and eat several a day but this dude is nothing but click bait and anyone who actually believes this is a moron.
