Jane consumed a breakfast that contained 85 grams of carbohydrate, 20 grams of protein, and 18 grams of fat. How many kilocalori
Korolek [52]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A. 392

B. 582

C. 917

D. 1,107

Answer:

B) 582  

Explanation:

The digestion or oxidation of the food substrate provides energy in the form of ATP which can be converted to the SI unit of energy called a calorie.

The oxidation of one gram carbohydrates provides 4 kcal therefore 85 g of carbohydrate provides  85 x 4 = 340 kcal.

The oxidation of one gram of protein provides 4 kcal therefore 20 g of protein provides  20 x 4 = 80 kcal.

The oxidation of fat provides 9 kcal therefore 18 g of fat provides  18 x 9 = 163 kcal.

Therefore the total kcal provided by the food will be-  

340 + 80 + 162= 582 kcal.

Thus, 582 kcal is the correct answer.

Crank

Answer:

1. Those that are needed in large amounts are called macronutrients. There are three macronutrients required by humans: carbohydrates (sugar), lipids (fats), and proteins. Each of these macronutrients provides energy in the form of calories.

2.

3. Headaches.

Dizziness.

Fatigue or sleepiness.

Shallow breathing or increased heart rate.

Extremely dry skin.

Fainting.

Dark yellow-colored urine.

4.

a) Get in balance.

Eat a diet that's 45 percent carbs, 30 percent protein, and 35 percent good-for-you fats—olive oil, fish, or nuts. "Eating too little fat makes you feel deprived," Forberg says. "Sprinkle almonds on your salad, put Parmesan cheese on your whole-wheat pasta, or slice avocado on your sandwich. Fat is a flavor carrier that helps other foods taste more robust."

B) Avoid anything artificial.

Stick with real foods, such as vegetables, fruits, nuts, lean meats, low-fat dairy, and whole-grain pasta, rice, and bread. "The idea is to get the biggest nutrient bang for the calorie buck. Processed foods contain a lot of junk. Real foods are antioxidant-rich and fiber-filled."

C) Pile on the green stuff.

"The bulk of your diet should be vegetables, such as tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, spinach, and other greens," says Forberg. Vegetables are high in fiber and water, which fill you up. "You'll be surprised by how much you can eat when you follow this plan."

D) Keep a food journal.

"People who write down what they eat after every meal lose twice the weight of those who don't."

E) Set healthy limits.

"On the show, we recommend women consume 1,200 to 1,500 calories a day and men 1,600 to 2,400, depending on their size," says Forberg. "If you're super-tired, eat a little more. This is about making a lifestyle change and doing something that's sustainable."

F) Never let yourself get famished—or too full.

"When you're super-hungry, you choose the wrong foods and eat too much. Stop when you're comfortably full. You should never have to unbutton your pants!"

5. Anorexia Nervosa

Anorexia nervosa encompasses behaviors like dieting, fasting, over-exercising, taking diet pills, diuretics, laxatives and vomiting. Women outnumber the number of men affected by anorexia, drastically.

Characteristics of anorexia nervosa include:

1. Constantly expressing disdain for their body or how unsatisfied they are with the way they look, even if they are fit and toned.

2. Maintaining a bodyweight that is at least 15 percent below the nation average for their age and height.

3. Missing at least three menstrual cycles consecutively.

4. Intense fear of gaining weight or appearing fat.

Bulimia Nervosa

Bulimia nervosa affects those who have recurrent and frequent episodes of eating unusually large amounts of foods followed by purging (throwing up), fasting and/or excessive exercise. Unlike anorexia, when an individual is bulimic, they may be slightly underweight, normal weight or overweight.

Characteristics of bulimia nervosa include:

1. Over-thinking of self-image, body shape and/or weight.

2. Episodes of uncontrolled eating that occur at least two times a week for up to three months or longer.

Binge Eating Disorder

Binge eating disorder occurs when an individual repeatedly eats unusually large amounts of food in a short period of time. This behavior happens two times a week for six months or more. People living with binge eating disorder do not purge or use extreme weight loss strategies. After eating they may feel disgusted, distressed, ashamed or guilty over their behavior and/or physical appearance, which can fuel their depression.

Characteristics of binge eating disorder include:

1. Continuous weight gain.

2. Eating in secret and feeling of shame when a friend or loved one finds their food cache.

3. Intense satisfaction when eating, followed by remorse and mood swings.
