Nutritional Measurement

no, wine is not a carbohydrate. There are 4 calories every gram of carbohydrate, whereas there are 7 calories every gram of alcohol.

Wine contains multiple forms of carbohydrates. Wine itself is not a pure substance and is not in and of itself a carbohydrate.

• To sum it up in one word: Overeating. The biggest nutrition problem is obesity. Americans spend billions of dollars yearly trying to lose weight. The United States is now trying to put a larger emphasis on preventative care (such as nutrition) to cut back on the medical costs caused by diseases related to obesity and poor nutrition (such as some cancers, heart disease, diabetes, etc.). Most people in the U.S. also have one or more risk factors that predict premature death and illness:
  • 1/3 have elevated cholesterol
  • 1/3 have hypertension
  • More than 30% are obese
  • More than 65% are overweight
  • 10% are diabetic
• Diseases of affluence are epidemic among people who eat the standard American diet:
  • 1/2 die prematurely of heart disease
  • 1/2 of men develop life-threatening cancer
  • 1/3 of women develop life-threatening cancer
  • Over age 60, 30% have gallbladder disease
  • One in seven suffers with serious arthritis
  • 60% complain of bad breath (halitosis)
  • Most have gastrointestinal troubles (indigestion to constipation)
• Americans consume too many macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, and protein) and too few micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals like antioxidants).
• Much of the food Americans consume has been over-processed and stripped of nutrients. Some nutrients are are added back in to some foods, but those don't necessarily make the food as healthy as a whole, unprocessed food. There is an overabundance of refined and processed carbohydrates and fat in our diets, which not only leads to dangerous weight gain, but also contributes to diabetes, which is at epidemic proportions in the US, even among children. Burgers, rolls, pizza, sodas, french fries, etc., have unhealthy levels of processed carbohydrates or fat. And with the elimination of most physical activity by both adults and children, our bodies do not need the extra calories or the extra carbohydrates. Eating junk food, including refined or processed carbohydrates, fats, and chemical preservatives, does not fill our nutritional needs, so we crave more food and we keep eating. We become addicted to refined or processed carbohydrates, often without being aware of it. Over-consumption of pre-prepared and junk foods are the biggest nutrition problem. The problem is that they bring us an excess of sugar and fat and artificial colors, flavors, additives, etc., and a lack of vitamins minerals.
• The standard American diet is deficient in calcium, iodine, vitamin C, vitamin E, fiber, folate, magnesium, zinc, and potassium. In fact:
  • 98% of Americans eat potassium-deficient diets because they don't eat enough plants
  • 95% of Americans don't get enough fiber
  • Over 92% of Americans are deficient in one or more vitamins. That doesn't mean they are receiving less than the amount they need for optimal health. That means they receive less than the MINIMUM amount necessary to prevent deficiency diseases.
  • Up to 80% of Americans are deficient in magnesium.
  • Almost 75% don't get enough zinc
  • 70% don't get enough vitamin E
  • 50% don't get enough vitamin D
  • 40% don't get enough iron
  • Up to 40% don't get enough vitamin B12
  • 37% don't get enough vitamin C
• Much of the food Americans consume is packaged so that it can be shipped long distances and not spoil on the shelf. Besides the fact that all that packaging and shipping hurts the environment, the food is often less healthy than fresh food.
• Most Americans do not eat enough fresh fruits and vegetables, leading to deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
• We haven't been taught good habits. Consider the virtue of moderation, smaller meal sizes, as well as keeping meals well balanced. Meals with moderate amounts of healthy food and good helpings of vegetables are not the norm for the average American. They may have never learned to cook or how to make good food choices. Going out to eat, eating ice cream, doughnuts, chips, meat, sweets, candy, and junk food of all kinds is a problem. Go to the store and buy some oatmeal, broccoli, bananas, apples, lettuce, carrots, potato, rice, and lentils and other basic simple foods.
• Our food is making us sick. Too much cholesterol, saturated fat, dairy products, and sugar contribute to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Half of men, ages to 65 to 74, and 39% of women, ages 75 and older, must take expensive statin drugs just to stay alive on the standard American diet.
• The more we know, the more we can fix the general nutrient-deficient diets we eat in America.

156 ml = 5.27 US fluid ounces.

Ketchup is approximately 1/3 sugar (form of fructose), since 3 tsp equal 1T, there is approx 1tsp of sugar per every Tablespoon of ketchup.

1000 millilitres = 1 litre so 250 millilitres = 250/1000 = 0.25 litres. Simple!

Lets first assume a few things about your question. First, assume that we are comparing the volume of 8 oz (0.5 lbs) of water in static equilibrium in a newtonian frame of reference to the empty volume of a glass container. Second, assume that we are on the surface of earth with the temperature of the water equal to the temperature of its surroundings at 60 degrees Fahrenheit (no transient conditions). Third, assume that the glass itself is a typical 12 fl oz drinking glass and is not included in the weight of the water. Under these assumptions, by definition, 8oz of water is exactly two thirds of one glass. Hope this helped!!!

question is meaningless. gallon is a unit of volume, sq ft is a unit of area. the above is a horrible answer. simply put your question was miss worded. i believe you meant cubic foot (not square foot). the answer is 7.481 gallons in a cubic foot

1cc is 1ml, or .001 liters.

1cc of water also has a mass of 1g

Not quite one. A pint is 16 ounces; a quart is 32 ounces. A liter is 33.8 ounces.

There is only 25 - 35 grams of protein in a 70cc scoop

So if you wanted 70 grams, 2 scoops.

potato's

Put the pot of honey on a set of scales and write the weight down.

Take a Tablespoon of honey out.

Re-weigh the pot of honey.

calculate the weight of the spoonful of honye.

Repeat several times, and there is your answer.

Yes, there is protein in beans, and all other legumes. Although most beans (with the exception of soy, for example) are not complete proteins (ones that contain all 9 essential amino acids)- eggs would be an example of a complete protein.

Small chunk of meat

This all depends on what kind of rice you are talking about. Brown, unhulled rice is the healthiest form there is. It contains manganese, iron, and selenium. White rice contains just about nothing but calories.

hello, an answer worth knowing is that the daily allownce of fruit and vegetables is 5 peices of the combined a day. Olivia + Paola =) BISR we is wicked

There are 1000 milligrams in one gram. Therefore, 94.5 grams is equal to 94.5 x 1000 = 94500 milligrams.

Alot Because If You Think About It How Many In Butter Also Alot Sp Its About The Sam

The question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A cc is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A milligram is a measure of mass, with dimensions [M]. The two measure different things and elementary dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

As a simple mental exercise consider a cc of air and of water. They will have very different masses.

This can easily be answered once you break it all down to a molecular level. Here are the basics...

Sugar (as we know it, like table sugar) is a disaccharide known as sucrose. This is made up of two monomers, glucose and fructose. Various other mixings of similar monomers produce other types of sugars and sweetners.

Carbohydrates are very complex, and are polysaccharides. This means that they contain long polymers, which eack contain hundreds or thousands of monomers, like glucose.

Sugars and carbohydrates to the same thing for the body, and - when broken up moleculary - are actually near identical. They both provide energy.

Really, it is not that sugars have carbohydrates, but rather that carbohydrates have sugars.
