We Are What We Eat: Food Labels and Nutrition

Macromolecules Macromolecules make up all the food we consume! Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins These macromolecules give us energy to live!

How do we get energy? The food we consume give us energy in the form of Calories. Calorie: the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C Remember: heat=energy

Food Labels All manufactured foods are required by law to have a food label. What information can we get from a food label? Total calories in the food How much Fat, carbohydrates and protein the food contains Essential vitamins Daily percent

Using Food Labels Each macromolecule provides our bodies with a certain amount of calories. Carbohydrates: 4 calories per gram Protein: 4 calories per gram Fats: 9 calories per gram We can use these values to calculate the breakdown of calories!

How? You multiply the number of grams by the amount of calories it provides. Add them together to get the total amount of calories for the food your eating.

Carbohydrates Total Carbohydrates: 19.66 grams Calories provided: 4 per gram 19.66 X 4 = 78.64 Calories

Fats Total Fat: 0.56 grams Calories provided: 9 per gram 0.56 X 9 = 8.64 Calories

Proteins Total Protein: 1.24 grams Calories provided: 4 per gram 1.24 X 4 = 4.96 Calories
