1 gram of carbohydrate contains about 4200 calories so it's impossible. But if you mean "Calories", which I think you do, then 1 gram of carbohydrate contains 4.2. 4.2x30=126 So about 126 Calories comes from the carbohydrates.
How many carbs are in a healthy weight loss diet plan?
There are two kinds of carbs, commonly referred to as "good carbs" and "bad carbs." Carbs are the source of energy in the body and come from starches, fiber and sugar. Simple carbs are the ones to avoid (processed sugar, white bread, candy, etc.) while complex carbs (fruits, veggies, potatoes) are healthier for a variety of reasons. The number of carbs included in the daily meal plan depends on the calories of the plan and how active you are.

How many carbohydrates should I eat for a 1400 calorie diet?
For 1400 calories, I think about 175 total grams of carbs is correct. I based this on the guidelines suggesting that 50% of calories come from carbs, and there are 4 calories per carb/gram...SO: 1400 divided by 2=700. 700 divided by 4=175. The thing to remember is that "complex" carbs like whole grain, veggies and beans have FIBER, which most "simple" carbs like sugar, white bread, cakes, soda, etc. DON'T have any fiber so they spike blood sugar. I also think that you can deduct the fiber grams from the carb grams because fiber is not digested by the body (that's where you'll see the term "net carbs" on packaging). So if a wholegrain roll has 20 g of carbs and 8 g of fiber, you really only absorb 12 g of carbs. Hope this helps!
