It is a vegetable, Although considered a starch due to it's High Carbohydrate (and Calorie) Content, and ability to be used for breads. A potato is 7% resistant Starch.
yes it does if eaten on a daily basis! One cup of yucca contains 330 calories. This makes up approximately 17 percent of a 2,000-calorie diet. A majority of the calories contained in yuccas come from their high carbohydrate content. Yuccas contain 78.4 grams carbohydrate. At 4 calories per gram, this adds up to 314 calories. More than 95 percent of the calories in yuccas come from carbohydrates.
Generally, foods are analyzed in a lab to determine the nutritional content. This is how the nutrition counts on most labels are determined, and it is the most accurate way. In some cases, home cooks will add up the nutrition counts of all the ingredients, to get a nutrition count. For example, if I'm making chicken salad with chicken that has 20 g of protein, and an egg with 7 g of protein, the total recipe has 27 g of protein. Some cookbook programs such as Master Cook are available. When you type in a recipe, they have a feature that will estimate the nutritional information, based on the ingredients.
peanut butter contains 8 grams of protein in only 2 tablespoons. This is the densest (as far as I know) ratio of protein per oz. of food. beyond that, beef has approximately 7 grams / oz. chicken has approximately 8 grams / oz. fish has approximately 6 grams / oz. pork has approximately 7 grams / oz.
Protein RDA Protein recommendations are mainly based on the individuals body weight. The protein RDA is high, to cover most person's needs. The average requirement for protein is 0.6 grams per kilogram of body weight; the RDA is 0.8 grams this is said to meet 97.5% of the population's needs.
One cup of chicken salad spread contains 416 calories. It also has 28 grams of fat, 15 grams of carbohydrate, and 24 grams of protein.
One tablespoon of dried cherries contains 33 calories and 8 grams of carbohydrate. One tablespoon also contains 242 milligrams of protein.
How many calories are in a food which has 10 grams of protein, 4 grams of fat, and 20 grams of carbohydrate
If you are talking about getting 100 calories from pure protein, there are 25 grams of protein. However, a lot of foods have a mixture of protein, carbohydrate, and fat. So this isn't necessarily the case with all foods. Take a look at the nutrition fact label to see how many grams of protein/fat/carbohydrate are in each serving. 1g protein=4 calories 1g carbohydrate=4 calories 1g alcohol=7 calories 1g fat=9 calories
One gram of carbohydrate contains approximately 4 calories. If the cereal contains 30 grams of carbohydrate, this would mean that 120 calories come from carbohydrates. 120 calories is 50% of 240; therefore, carbohydrates comprise of 50% of the total calories for your cereal.
Every gram of carbohydrate has 4 calories, so 20 grams of carbohydrates would be 80 calories. But you also have to take into account the amount of protein and fat grams in the food, as well. Protein has the same amount of calories as carbohydrates (4 calories per gram) and fat has 9 calories per gram.

A carbohydrate is mass, and "gram" is a unit to measure the weight of mass. So any given mass of carbohydrate will have a weight measurable in grams. For instance, 1 cup of corn weighs 166 grams. Of that weight, 123 grams are carbohydrates. I think your real question may have been, "How many calories in a gram of carbohydrate?" This is a little tricky because indigestible fiber is considered to be carbohydrate but being indigestible has no calories. Non-fiber carbohydrates are considered to have 4 calories per gram. So in the example of the corn, there are 12 grams of fiber. This leaves 111 grams of carbs times 4 calories = 444 calories from carbohydrates. There are 16 grams of protein in the 166 gram quantity and protein is also counted @4 calories per gram, so 4x16= 64 calories from protein. Fat is considered to have 9 calories per gram and the cup of corn contains 8 grams of fat, so 8x9=72 calories from fat.
One cup of cellophane noodles contains 180 calories, 0.7 grams of fat, and 43 grams of carbohydrate. Cellophane noodles do not contain any protein.

No. Both one gram of protein and one gram of carbohydrates contain 4 calories.
Bananas Are Not A Good Protein SourceBananas have a small amount of protein. For example, one medium-sized banana about 7 inches long would contain about 1 gram or 4 calories worth of protein. However, bananas are commonly known for their potassium and carbohydrate content.
