Calorie content of foods. Nutritional energy value
The energy value of food (caloric content) is the estimated amount of thermal energy (measured in calories or joules) that is produced by the human or animal body during the assimilation (catabolism) of eaten foods. Depends on the chemical composition of food (amount of proteins, fats, carbohydrates and other substances). The energy value is usually indicated on the packaging of any industrially manufactured products.
For food products, the energy value is usually indicated per 100 grams of product, or per 100 ml of drinks, and includes information on the amount of three main components - BZHU (proteins, fats, carbohydrates) and total energy value. The BJU content is presented in grams, and the caloric content is presented in kcal and kJ (1 kcal = 4.1868 kJ).
The calorie content of food is calculated by burning it in a calorimeter. At the same time, the calorie content of the same product in different tables may differ. This is due to different climatic conditions and methods of growing plants and animals.
