Are You Sure It’s Fat Free

Introduction Food industry misleads us by calculating the fat satiate in incase food on weight foot whereas the fat capacitance (having to do more with the calorific value of a food item and not its weight) actually has to be calculated on the priming coat of the calorie value of the food item. So, the calorie basis is what has to be applied to know how much fat our food items actually carry. Here are cardinal interesting eye-openers Breakfast Oatmeal (Single serving = 45 g) Calories in a single serving = 160 Fat content is 2 g 1 g of fat has 9 calories 2 g of fat = 2 * 9 = 18 calories.The fat content is (18/160) * one hundred = 11. 25 % Protein content is 1. 8 g 1 g of protein has 4 calories 1. 8 g of protein = 1. 8 * 4 = 7. 2 calories The protein content is (7. 2/160) * 100 = 4. 5% Lunch Raisin Bran infatuation (Single serving = 60 g) Calories in a single serving = one hundred ninety Fat content is 1 g 1 g of fat has 9 calories The fat content is (9/190) * 100 = 4. 74 % P rotein content is 3 g 1 g of protein has 4 calories 3 g of protein = 3 * 4 = 12 calories The protein content is (12/190) * 100 = 6. 32% dinner party Vanilla Yogurt (Single serving = 225 g) Calories in a single serving = 110 Fat content is 2 g g of fat has 9 calories 2 g of fat = 2 * 9 = 18 calories The fat content is (18/110) * 100 = 16. 36 % Protein content is 5 g 1 g of protein has 4 calories 5 g of protein = 5 * 4 = 20 calories The protein content is (20/110) * 100 = 18. 18% Now, see what the food industry calculations would have been Breakfast Oatmeal (Single serving = 45 g) Fat content is 2 g The fat content is (2/45) * 100 = 4. 44 % Protein content is 1. 8 g The protein content is (1. 8/45) * 100 = 4% Lunch Raisin Bran Crunch (Single serving = 60 g) Calories in a single serving = 190 Fat content is 1 g The fat content is (1/60) * 100 = 1. 7 % Protein content is 3 g The protein content is (3/60) * 100 = 5% Dinner Vanilla Yogurt (Single serving = 225 g) Calories in a single ser ving = 110 Fat content is 2 g The fat content is (2/225) * 100 = 0. 89 % Protein content is 5 g The protein content is (5/225) * 100 = 2. 22% Conclusion The above calculations speak for themselves. The actual fat/protein contents in packaged food stuffs are much more than what the food industry claims. This is misleading. The nutrition experts must enlighten the general public about this distorted information and avail all towards better health.
