All of us want to be slender, healthy and attractive. To remain in good shape, it is necessary to maintain balance between the calories arriving from food and the spent energy. How to define as far as a kaloriyna your food?
Instruction
1. To learn the caloric content of the prepared dish, make the list of all ingredients and determine their weight in a ready-made product. Then according to special tables of caloric content or online calculators of calories write out the caloric content of each ingredient in 100 g. Increase this caloric content by the weight of products and put. You received the general caloric content of a dish. Now count the lump of a ready-to-eat meal, having put the weight of all ingredients which are a part. To learn the caloric content of a ready-to-eat meal on 100 g, increase dish caloric content by 100 and divide into its weight.
2. For example, you cook a vegetable salad from carrots. It includes 250 g of carrots (33 kcal / 100г), 15 g of garlic (106 kcal / 100) and 30 g of 20-% sour cream (206 kcal / 100). Now increase caloric content in 100 grams by weight and put, that is the caloric content of a ready-to-eat meal will be 2.5×33+0.15×106+0.3×206=106.2 kcal. Total weight of salad: 250+15+30=295 g. Then dish caloric content on 100 g is equal to 106.2×100÷295=36 kcal / 100.
3. However this method isn't always exact. It is necessary to pay the attention to some nuances. If you fry fish or meat on vegetable oil, then to the general caloric content of a dish 20% of caloric content of oil increase. Vegetables when frying absorb in themselves 100% of oil. For example, the caloric content of sunflower oil of 899 kcal / 100, when frying chicken you used 2 tablespoons (about 35 g - 899×35÷100). Means, the caloric content of a dish will increase by 63 kcal.
4. If you cook porridge or pasta on water, then the number of calories of a ready-to-eat meal will be the same as well as dry. For example, the caloric content of millet is 334 kcal / 100. When cooking 100 g of grain about 350 g of millet cereal turn out. The ready-to-eat meal will also contain 334 kcal and its caloric content on 100 g will be 334×100÷350≈96 kcal / 100.
5. Water caloric content zero. However the caloric content of broth is equal to 20% of caloric content of a raw meat or 15% of caloric content of fish. At calculation of caloric content of a ready-to-eat meal it is necessary to consider that products lose in weight at thermal treatment and, therefore, caloric content increases by 100 g of a product in finished form. For example, meat and a liver uvarivatsya for 40%, a bird and fish – for 30%.
