Fill in these numbers from your label and then use them for the left hand column in Step A below:-
Grams of carbohydrates per serving: _____________________________
Grams of protein per serving: _____________________________
Grams of fat per serving _____________________________
Step A: Calculate the total kilojoules per serving as follows:-
________ g carbohydrate x 17 kJ per gram = ________ carbohydrate kJ
________ g protein x 17kJ per gram = ________ protein kJ
________ g fat x 37 kJ per gram = ________ fat kJ
TOTAL ENERGY/SERVING = ________ kJ
Step B: Calculate the percentage of energy from each of the energy containing nutrients in a serving of the food. Use the numbers from the above calculations you found for energy from each macronutrient and total energy, to calculate the % energy contribution of each macronutrient in the food (Show calculations; replacing X and Y).
energy from carb X
_____________ x 100 = ________ = ____________ % kJ from carb
Total kJ/serving Y
energy from protein X
_____________ x 100 = _______ = ____________ % kJ from protein
Total kJ/serving Y
energy from fat X
_____________ x 100 = ________ = ____________ % kJ from fat
Total kJ/serving Y
** Note: the total percentage of energy from carbohydrates, protein and fat should equal 100% approximately.
Part C Summary
Give a brief overview of the findings of the product examined (ie. statement as to whether nutritional claims were made and if they were justified), followed by suggesting ways in which the information found on food labels may be manipulated by food manufacturers to make the food appear to be more attractive to consumers.
