Calories - Pound of fat - how many
does it take?
Here are some fun tips
about calories, fat grams, sugars, and a few others. I hope
you enjoy.
Have you ever wondered
how many calories exist per pound of body fat?
The answer is
3500. There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat.
So – If you burn 3500
calories then technically your body should lose a pound of
body fat and if you consume 3500 extra calories then
potentially you gain a pound of body fat.
Have you ever asked
yourself; “How many fat grams should I eat everyday?” The
answer depends on your personal caloric needs. Once you
figure your personal caloric needs plan on 25-30 percent of
your total calories coming from fat. Less than 7% of your
total calories should come from saturated fat.
Carbohydrates in coffee?
Have you ever wondered how many carbohydrates are in coffee?
The answer is 0 grams of carbohydrates. If you are watching
carbs then be sure to read the labels of any fancy coffee
drinks – They quite possibly could have hidden carbs.
Have you ever wondered
about the amount of calories in sugar? There are 45 calories
in 1 tablespoon of sugar. Have you ever wondered about the
sugar in your soda? One of the leading brands has 41 grams
of sugar.
Have you ever wondered
how much protein do you need a day? The RDA is 0.8 g of
protein per kg body weight per day – This may vary for you
personally if you are more active. Consult your physician
before radically adjusting your protein intake.
I wish for you the best
of health!
