To determine:
The caloric values of today’s servings and also compare the calculated data which is given in the table.
Introduction:
Calorie is the amount of heat or energy used to increase the temperature of water by
The food calorie (large calorie) that represents food energy is
times greater than the calorie as it equa ls the amount of heat or energy needed to increase the temperature of
water by
This large calorie is also called as kilocalorie, but in relation to the nutritional studies of food energy, the term calorie is used. Serving size mentioned on the food label prove the information regarding the amount of calorie intake at one sitting.
