How could you have more than the recommended grams of fat but less than the recommended range of Kcals?

Answer 1

Simply - your recommended daily caloric intake consists of three types of so called macronutrients:

Carbohydrates, found in bread, rice, paste, ... - at 4 kcal/g

Protein, found in fish, beef, poultry, eggs - at 4 kcal/g

Fats, found in Oil, Meat, butter - at 9 kcal/g

so if your recommended intake ist 2000 kcal/day and 50g of fats you could eat like this:

50 g fats * 9 = 450 kcal

150 g protein * 4 = 600 kcal

250 g carbs *4 = 1000 kcal

------------------------------------

approx. 2000kcal

of course if you eat less protein and more fat (typical western diet) you could have this:

100 g fats * 9 = 900 kcal

50 g protein * 4 = 200 kcal

200 g carbs *4 = 800 kcal

------------------------------------

approx. 1900kcal

So you BELOW recommend kcal but ABOVE recommend fat intake. Hope this helps.
