calories in protein, fat, n carbohydrates

Jan 11, 2010

  • Protein contains 4 calories per gram
  • Carbohydrates contain 4 calories per gram
  • Fat contains 9 calories per gram

As you see, fat contains more than twice the calories of protein and carbohydrates.

Most foods contain a mixture of protein, carbs and fat.

Calories from fat are more easily stored as fat, than are calories from carbohydrates.



I forgot exactly how many calories was in each....so i had to look it up... thought I would post it here
