Calories

Could you please tell me how many calories are in one teaspoon of sugar? Many thanks. In one level teaspoon of sugar has 16 calories and 4 grams of carbohydrate.

I would appreciate it if you would tell me the calorie and fat count in 1 ounce of fresh buffalo mozzarella? The nutrition analysis should be on the food label. However since cheese is regulated by the USDA not the FDA, nutrition content may not be posted by the food manufacturer. I did find fresh...

Given everything else identical, would weight loss be equal on 1200 calorie/day high protein, low carb vs. 1200 calorie/day high carb? Thanks for your reply. While a calorie is a calorie, it shouldn't make any difference. However in high protein, low carbohydrate weight loss diets, people lose weight faster due to loss of body water rather...

I've noticed that you refer several times (on your website) to nutrition analysis software. I was wondering if you could give me any ideas concerning this. I have one that is pretty old and outdated (very limited products). Can you suggest any specific ones or companies or anything? I'd appreciate it. Since 1989, I have...

I have got that 1 gram produces 9 calories of fat, 4 calories of carbohydrate, 4 calories of protein but I could not find anywhere how many calories are there in 1 milligram of calcium which...

I am quite sure that you are flooded with a million requests a day and I would like to thank you ahead of time if you manage to find the time to attend to my request. I am a young healthy woman who is getting ready to get married and has gained a few pounds...

Just like the next person, I'm concerned about how many calories I eat. Unfortunately, I don't really know how many I'm getting. Is there a way that I can find out? You can take several approaches depending on how much time you want to spend. First, you need to write down everything you eat or drink....
